Its not what I have in the folder that is really the problem it is the fact
that everytime I click on my computer either from desktop or wherever,
everything stops responding and if I try to end task the whole screen goes
blank for 3-5 mins until all of the icons come back. I also cannot view my
drives through my computer, it is so frustrating especially when everything
else appears to be working fine. The only thing that I can find in my event
log is that for ther past two days I have had a string of errors saying that
my com+event system is not properly installed. How do I reinstall this and
would this be causing my problems?

whenever I try to access 'My Computer' fro windows start menu my start menu
hangs, I can access everything else on the start menu but not my computer.
It takes about 3 minutes before it rights itself
whenever I try to access my computer from the link on the satart menu, the
menu freezes and I have to wait 3 mins for it to come back to life. If I try
to get into my computer from the desktop icon the window opens but there are
no icons in the folder,
I have a severe problem with my pc, I cannot view anything in My Computer
and it keeps hanging, system restore doesn't work, the pc is slow to boot
5-10 mins but eventually all desktop items appear. I am stopped from running
any online checks virus trojan etc, the programs work upto a point then they
stop. all of my AV, spybot,adaware etc etc report no problems. Do I have a
nasty in the system? I have also run hijackthis but have no listed unknowns.
One thing that is puzzling me is that when I try to remove certain progs
from ZA, when I go back to the progs menu they are back again.
