dave thanks the above is what i finally found and it removed the spy axe
and zlob .. however when i tried to update at microsoft.com the update pack
2 loads halfway and then goes to "access is denied" theres still something
wrong as my computer is slow and acts sluggish [maybe due simply to a half
installed pack 2 dont know] unfortunately the original info i had got was
where i screwed up this deal is there a tool for repairing/replacing missing
files in regedit ? thanks for the help dan
