    Windows XP SP2 Update Failure

    Sorry it has taken me so long to post a response, Linney. If Windows is supposed to start itself, why doesn't it? I still need to go back and manually change it from Manual to Automatic.

    Windows XP SP2 Update Failure

    Hurray! Never mind my questions - I figured it out. For every other novice out there, this is what was wrong on my computer: First, I was not able to add http sites to my list of trusted sites because I the box entitled "require server verification" was checked. Simply uncheck it and you can...

    Windows XP SP2 Update Failure

    Couple of questions: first, how do I ensure that the ActiveX control used by Windows Update has been installed? I'm a complete novice, and instructions on this would be great. Second, I added the https items you listed previously, but it won't take any http items - I get an error code that it...

    Here's the latest log - that darn res://shdocpe.dll/asst.htm is persistant! Whenever I go online, I am prompted by the numerous anti-spyware programs I have running (Geek Superhero and SpySubtract) that something is trying to change my websettings. I keep denying the change, but there still...

    Lions-Search @ startpage...cant get rid of this :-/

    Thanks to everyone for their feedback. I took everyone's suggestions, tried to incorporate them all, and got rid of the dreaded "Lions-Search" hijack. But now I have a new one! it is res://shdocpe.dll/blank.htm. Maybe this one was dormant and only came out after Lions-Search was eliminated...

    Lions-Search @ startpage...cant get rid of this :-/

    O.K., after posting the log, I followed the following steps to try to get rid of this bug based on what everyone has stated so far. But it is still there. Maybe I didn't do the steps in the right order? 1. Disabled System Restore 2. Ran Spybot and removed DSO "Exploit" 3. Ran SpySubtract - no...
