Ad-ware SE Plus, or its adwatch detected a problem with my system registry. I
guess I must have clicked the wrong button, by now I can only access few
shortcuts - w/ a prompt that states that an in particular file does not have
a program associated with it. I can't use help and support, open executables,
add or remove programs in the CP, etc. Please help to at least get me back
where I can open executables. I plan to upgrade to XP Pro, but I can't run
certain chipset identity utilities that I need to use prior to this due to my
problem. Thank you!
