Scroll back up in this thread and read CAREFULLY the post re sfcfiles.dll...
You must first delete the sfcfiles.dll in the hidden folder which has all the dll
and other files. These dlls will regenerate the dll files elsewhere when XP discovers
they are missing. (try deleting the Outlook Express program files. They magically
reapper in a minute or so...)
Take a look at the files for Outlook or Outlook express. If you search (making hidden
an system files visible) you will find files with similar names in the folders:
c:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache
and
c:\WINDOWS\system32
Now then...
in the folder c:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache
Change the names of the files from
(example) sfcfiles.dll to sfcfilesxxx.dll
Once you have altered these files, then you can delete the files in Outlook or elsewhere.
XP may grouse about it but tell the system to ignore it.
You will now find that you can delete the offending files and folders and they won't
come back.
Works for me. No more Outlook express, Netmeeting, Xerox, Messenger and the rest
of the crap.
Still working on MyEbooks... Adobe insists on regenerating that any time Reader is
started.
And you can open sfcfiles.dll with NOTEBOOK. Search in side it for "x e r o x" (spaces
are imnportant. Hmmm....
Oh Yeah... the Fileunlocker program comes in quote handy. Be careful though. I usually
just rename offending files, appending xxx to the filename. Juuust in case I might
really need the file later...
