What is the situation regarding keeping your computer to date?

It would seem that you do not have the latest shlwapi.dll file as
a more recent version was provided in January 2006.

Try Start, Help and Support, Keep your computer up-to-date with
Windows Update. Look at the History of Updates installed there.

You posted three Reports. Which, if any of these reports occur
a number of times?

I use anti-virus/spyware programs offered by my server. I also use two
third
party spyware. I haven't had any events logged in my anti-virus program
because I keep it updated.

No, I did not install the update for Office 2003. I'd forgotten about it,
frankly.

Here are the newest errors. I hope this is what you want. If not, let me
know and I'll dig out what you need. Thanks in advance, again.

The information about RAM memory and disk space are not indicating
problems
in those areas,

The Event Viewer reports are interesting but you would do better to
concentrate
on Errors / Warnings from the System log for yesterday / today. Can you
post
these.

One System Report dated 9 February 2006 indicates that the Office 2003
Service
Pack 2003 failed to install. Did you subsequently successfully install
this
update.

What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements?

Max and Gerry,

I've run two third party spyware programs. Every thing is fine in that
aspect.

I should let you know that I've also installed and ran ShellXView. I've
disabled 'RealOne Player Context Menu Class' from the non-Windows
Context
Menu description list. Since it's something I rarely use, I'd start
with
that
but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

To answer your questions, Gerry,

I don't use this PC to run heavy visual effect games. Pretty much just
surf
the web with this t hing.

I've checked the Event Viewer and I do have some Errors in both
Application
and System. There are many in both. I'll copy a few if I can.

Hello there, hope you can help me.
I can't get my pc to wake up when I'm in WinEx. It's very sluggish

even
freezes. Every other application works fine but WinEx. I've run

I've even
gone to my starup menu to clear some stuff up. Defrag doesn't do a
difference.

Any ideas?
