re: Question about 'How do get the taskbar and desktop back if Explorer crashes' Saturday, March 20, 2004 at 10:12 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Michael (1 messages posted) Nick, A friend of mine is having the exact same problems. I deleted winupd.exe, winupd.exeopen and winupd.exeopenopen and they keep coming back. This virus disallows the registry editor, so you have to end the virus and start regedit, then when the virus starts up again you have to end it very quickly before it closes reg edit. My stupid friend just payed a consultant to wipe his hard drive which was the dumbest thing he could ever do, I am perfecly cappable of that. Jeez. Well its to bad i found this post, maybe i could have helped him... for free.
