Hi, Carol,
I cannot run virus online scans, either download fails or the scan itself. That's
why I still have that lexplore worm, I guess. I tried again with Bitdefender and
again the scan gets interrupted by the lexplore message.
Unfortunately I could not find lexplore on the hard drive, I had looked for it before
when I deleted its entries from the registry editor. Where can the executable file
be then because I do keep getting this lexplore message when loading some Inet pages
like www.autotrader.co.uk or computer forums, not when checking mail. (I don't know
if it may have something to do with what's on those pages that makes the lexplore
kicks in.)
In the MSINFO32 where you told me to look for the IE repair tool, I do not have such
an option. What's there are things like: Windows Report Tool, System File Checker,
Registry Checker, System Configuration Utility, Scan Disk, Version Conflict Manager...
I regulary run Ad-adware, Spybot, CW-Shredder and HijackThis. I thought you might
want to know also that on almost every Inet page I have to press Yes to continue
to Internet Script Error.
I don't know... It must be like you said that I need to have the Inet Explorer fixed
and then get rid of that worm.
Thanks again so much for your help, Carol.
