    My computer recently started to act kind of weird and all these windows kept popping up. It created different icons in my desktop and I ran SUPERAntiSpyware the way the guide said to and I believe it got rid of them. I was following the "Windows XP Cleaning Procedure" and was on my way to install Spybot. For some reason it kept saying it would let connect to the server. I dont know what other step to take. Please let me know. Thank you in advanced.

    PS. Computer Specs : Microsoft Windows XP SP2, Intel Core2Duo CPU T5250 @ 1.50GHz, 1.0GB RAM, Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family. Ive attached the SUPERAntiSpyware log file.

    Hi hnostapleton,
    Welcome to Major Geeks!


    There's a good possibility you caught the site when it was down. Please try completing the instructions in the READ & RUN ME FIRST and attach the different logs when you get finished.

    Actually, thats the guide I was following and then my computer just froze and had to do a hard reset and when I turned it back on, it wouldn't load so I don't know what to do now.

    You need to tell us what "it wouldn't load" means....can you hit f8 at startup and get to last known good configuration? Can you get to safe mode? Does absolutely nothing happen? Also what steps from the READ & RUN ME had you run? Please be specific. :)
