"Ivoos",

I recommend taking your computer back in time. Here's how, starting with
rebooting the machine:

1. As you boot the machine, press F8 to enter Safe Mode.
2. Log into the local Administrator account.
3. Click Start
4. Click Run
5. type: msconfig
6. Click OK or hit the <Enter> key.
7. When the System Configuration Utility opens, make sure you are looking at
the General tab.
8. Click the "Launch System Restore" button. This will open a wizard.
9. On the calendar in the wizard, select the calendar date before you
deleted Mozilla Firefox.
10. Click OK through the wizard and reboot. This should bring you back to a
working and stable Windows XP.

Let us know how this goes.

Sincerely,

Pat Walters [MSFT]
