Tech Clinic / Windows Update
« on: May 31, 2005, 07:30:46 PM »
For Past few months, I have been unable to install windows updates to my computer. Whenever I go to windows update site, the page shows a blank loaded page that says "done" in the lower right corner. I also get these blank pages when I try to access various accounts on my computer, such as Email Removed, and yahoo. Any suggestions of what might be wrong? Some times i also got an Error page, that says something like, DNS error?

Tech Clinic / IE problems??
« on: May 26, 2005, 10:51:41 AM »
Ive finally rid my computer of loads of spyware. But now Im having problems with Internet Explorer. Hopefully a minor one. Whenever Im surfing and come to a link and click nothing happens, or it goes to a blank page. I frequently see the blank page when Im trying to check my emails for instance. But in the lower left hand corner of the page, where if u rest the mouse on a link you can see where the link will take you. Now I always see, "shortcut to javascript" basically it always says "shortcut" to something. I also get a message when I try to view certain pages that says "this page may not be viewed correctly, ActiveX is not running on this computer" but when i check under security it shows ActiveX running I guess. Hopefully these are some what minor problems


Thanks

Tech Clinic / Spyware???
« on: May 24, 2005, 08:58:39 PM »
This has driven me mad! I have worked repeatedly for 2 days trying to rid my computer of:
-Shopping Assistant
-Search Extender
-Home Search Assistant

Whenever I try to uninstall the programs I am redirected to a website that instructs me to click a link to remove. Very skeptical, but tried it anyway. Nothing happens. I have tried about 12 different Spyware Removal tools. NONE have worked thus far. Im about ready to re-install Windows now? Any suggestions?
