Posted March 8, 200718 yr http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/745/screenieip4.png Hi, I recently was given an old HP Pavilion and I have had it for about a week now. There were no issues with it until today when I tried opening My Documents or My Computer. Basically, the error that appears is above and I don't know what do to. I cannot access any of my documents but all of my programs work. I do not have a virus scanner currently. Any suggestions?:thinker: :thinker:

No wonder your computer is messing up. Try uninstalling them and see if the problems persists.
March 8, 200718 yr Search for avast or AVG for antivirus protection. as for your problem, why's visual studio crap coming up for this? Try getting rid of any visual studio stuff and try again.
March 8, 200718 yr Author yeah i have no idea why C++ stuff is appearing. i have no software by visual studio that is why i think it could be a virus.
March 8, 200718 yr AVG has a free version that works great. Grab it and get to scanning. Could also go into MSCONFIG and check what is starting up and remove the shit you don't reconize or need.
March 8, 200718 yr AVG and Spybot S&D would be the best options. I use a registered version of spyware doctor. It works great but takes up a lot of RAM. If your PC is good enough then feel free to use it.

March 8, 200718 yr Boot in safe mode first, then do the virus scan, then reboot back into safe mode again. Once you've done that you can boot back into normal mode. I do this, and it seems to work fine when I get viruses

Any suggestions?:thinker: :thinker: Now that I think about it, you could probably just delete explorer.exe. I don't think it's used for anything anyway. It's one of those things like Dr. Watson.
March 9, 200718 yr You use Firefox and WinAmp? No wonder your computer is messing up. Try uninstalling them and see if the problems persists. you are an idiot

March 10, 200718 yr Out the window. This has happened to me, your system just needs a good jolt, 3 stories should do the trick. Hope this helps!!
