Visit the Black VIper XP performance site and get rid of unneeded background programs. Study the Performance section on shown at the left sidebar. Use a good antivirus and Spybot or Adaware to keep out trojans, etc. http://www.blackviper.com [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: What is this happening Saturday, September 6, 2003 at 6:23 pm Posted by Steve (23809 messages posted) Hi Steve I had a virus last week and I deleated the file that was infected. I don't know if this has anything to do with it. I did a virus scan and the virus is gone.

Even after removal some things could have been changed. Take Toms advice.

Try ewido (www.ewido.com) that gets most of the weeds out and by far one of the best out on the market. The trial version will work for 15 days without any issues.
