Re: XP Weird problems



Using an ISP's setup disks can put all sorts of junk on the PC, I find it
better to set up manually

No not yet. It is my sisters computer and I'll try that when I get there.
Just did a remote session and now can't even get file search to come up.

Thanx for quick reply

I have a problem that occurred during a system update with a change in
broadband service. First I could not install provider issued security
package. I click on download icon and nothing happens. (Thought it
might be a bad link and went in through manually entering address) Still
no good. Thought Norton remnants might be causing problem so went through
and got Norton Uninstaller from their website. Ran program twice (had
problems in the past) Go to Control Panel and there is still a Norton
program but no icons to uninstall. Do reg check etc.. can't find
anything. Call service provider they are no help because they say any
Norton product will not allow their product to install correctly.

New problem arose after getting off the phone with their "service tech"
who even after pressing "1" doesn't speak English (Sorry another peeve)
Now getting web pages not loading (acting sort of like a security
issue, but can't tell because the page is blank)

Decide to try a system restore and now can't get that to
load........HELP

System is generic
Intel 1.5ghz
integrated Intel graphic engine
512 ram
Was originally clean install of XP Home

Have you tried re-installing Norton THEN using the Norton Uninstaller?
