3 days ago my MSN Messenger stopped working and I get the 80072efd
error. My Internet Explorer has also stopped connecting to the net and
crashes on exit. My Ghostsurf has also started to crash when it starts
loading.

None of the normal solutions have worked. I've disabled the XP
firewall, my mcaffee personal firewall, checked my msn connection
settings, been on the Microsoft help area and even spoken to the AOL
help people (AOL are my ISP). They were helpful and and I've followed
their advice but to no avail.

I'm now considering a clean install of XP which is a lot of hassle.
Does anyone else have any advice?
