I suspect a virus has attacked my system and I have ran
numerous virus scans, adaware and spybot scans. I have
removed several virus and trojans not to mention all the
spyware. My problem is that my system seems to be slowly
eroding. At first I would have the occaisional IE
closure. Now it closes almost constantly. I click on
Windows Help and Support and it closes out also. I was
having trouble using Outlook Express which has now
culminated in no email or headers downloading at all. I
run Win XP with a Zone Alarm firewall. I use Norton
(which also closes out when I try to run it) I even
downloaded a program to clean out my registry. That
hasn't helped. I delete cookies regularly and defrag. I
am not a computer whiz and I am really frustrated and
confused as to what to try next. Does anyone have any
suggestions?
