Indeed there is. The reason is this: The uneducated masses are about as computer literate as AOL Tech support. Those who have delt with such people, or find themselves correcting grevous errors made by such people on a regular basis will understand my hatred of these creatures. That said, it's...

like he said, run system file checker, also removing then reinstalling windows media player from the xp cd may help if system file checker fails. i have, at times, gotten away with just copying the executable from one machine to another (not the best solution mind you, i do reccoment uninstall...

I belive adaware offers an enterprise solution, pest patrol is alright, but i would stay away from spy sweeper. as for spybot search and destroy, you can force the automatic distribution of up-to-date-definitions but as great as spybot is (even better when run right before running adaware) i...

One interesting thing about Windows98 SE, is that it doesn't need any content in those two files to boot properly. Additionally you don't need a kernel32.dll as windows will regenerate that file aswell. There are some others like this I shall not bother listing here. If you're trying to speed up...
