After cleaning, now have Issues with downloading

Hello here is my problem.
I tried 5 times to down load from major geeks those mal ware programs ........ only to have the download start but as soon as they end they're either gone/ destroyed/wiped out or I am not getting a complete download for some reason...because what ends up in my download folder is icons that do not work.
i don't get a icon in downloads that "looks like a box to open"

what i see is a blue windows symbol.
You'll see this in the screen print image i took of my downloads folder.

and when I click on the windows symbol I get the prompt you see in the screen print, " this is not a win32 application"

What do you think is happening or that I should do or correct?
Since cleaning this computer a week ago of 21 viruses and malware and a Trojan or two and key loggers, this download issue appeared and applies now to everything other than images that I attempt to download.

I recently installed (3 days ago) " NoScripts to run on my browser. ...however, when I visit major geeks...I have NoScripts, allow entire page allowed.
I use both AVG's safe surfing features, and WOW, to tell me of any dangers of web sites I visit.
I have copies of reports from HiJackthis and ERUnt that I can provide.
I have Microsoft's built in firewall turned off because it is pretty bad as a firewall and need suggestions for a better firewall.
I use Fire fox exclusively and never Internet explorer.
I use AVG free version for protection.
I have installed 2 and 1/2 weeks ago, SpybotS&D and ran it and had it fix problems and remove all the bad 'bugs' it found which were 21.
I turned off system restore four days ago to empty it and have it back on now. as of 9-23-09

I am running on this computer the following:
Windows XP Home edition 2002 with service pack 3
Intel Celeron CPU 3.20GHZ
3.20GHZ, 1.43 GB of Ram

a 250 gig hard drive. and two additional hard drives, one being portable. A DVD player/ burner; and a Web cam.
I will gladly answer all your questions.
I eagerly await your assistance and instructions.
Thanks for reading this.

based on the little pop up bar at the bottom of your screen id have to say that your no scripts is doing it try adding majorgeeks to the exeptions list or disabling the software and retrying the download

 

Hi,
I am following your advice. I am reading the instructions on the pages at Major Geeks. This is great stuff!

By the way, How can I determine if I have a Windows XP is either 32 bit or 64 bit? So I can make not of it for future reference, for I am finding out, it can be important to know.

I am running Windows XP Home edition 2002 with service pack 3


Secondly,
How do I deal with a USB flash stick...when I want to remove it from one computer to install into another? I thought you just plugged them in and unplugged them when you finished saving to it. ..but I have been told that no U must shut it down / turn it off..... yet those same people can not tell me how to do that. When I right click on the flash drive from my computer I do not see a choice for turning it off all I see that might resemble that idea is Eject...but I get a message that says you might loose all data!........that would defeat the entire purpose for using this small device...so I am both confused and pondering what to do, How does one use these sticks? can you help by providing me with instructions?
Thanks I really appreciate this!

 

to remove it click the little icon in you task bar that says safly remove hardware and follow the prompts

 

Re: After cleaning, now have Issues with flash drives

red death 68,
I looked and there is no such icon on my task bar?
mmmm .....this is not the first time I have found not to have what others say I should.... so why is my version of XP Home edition 2002 so different than very one else's?


Plus Reddeath68,
How can I determine if my Windows XP is either 32 bit or 64 bit?

 

well heres how to tell 32 or 64 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827218

and as for why is you system differnt idk for sure but you can try going

start>control panel>system>hardware>divice manager and finding and reinstalling the driver for you flash item

best way to do this is update driver and choose the location of the driver as you flash drive and it should update your driver to the proper one for you flash drive

 

Awesome info!
Thank you!!!
I have determined that I have a 32 bit version of Windows XP home edition!

I am looking into the driver issue. I am currently using CC cleaner and cleaning all user accounts.
I will l post an update in the days to come.
Again , Thank you!

To Domluc,
Thank you!
Sure as my nose, there it was all the time! Wow I can easily show my ignorance!.... Yet I admit I am a visual learner and these forums work very well for my stile of learning.
Again Thank you Domluc.....and thank you to each of you who have responded!
I will post again within days, with a progress report!

Re: Update on: After cleaning, now have Issues with downloading

AND Now, an Update

I have completed the steps I have been able to install Malwarebytes and removed several nasty bugs! Hurray!
Computer is running fine! I have re-enabled system restore, and used cc cleaner, and disabled Microsoft's firewall.
I need a fire wall now, so i choose Outpost's firewall
and it downloaded but will not open, I am getting a message that states: this is not a valid Win32 program.
i attempted to get it to open by changing the name, still cannot open it.

SO I choose Commando's firewall, and smae problem as above, cannot open it, tried changing the name, still cannot open it.

What gives?. what are your thoughts on why it will not open and what steps do you recommend I take ?

Do you have Nero burning software installed?

 

Re: 2nd update ...After cleaning, now have Issues with downloading

I have now noticed, that my download folder shows the downloading of the firewall programs , and lists them as canceled.......canceled, How? I wonder?... so I am going to attempt to down load them again.

I want to add that I attempted to get updates for my windows XP 2003 home edition, but I can not because, the web site wants me to enable scripts and to mark the Microsoft web site as a safe address, in Internet explorer, or I am not able to get the updates however, I held off because, from what I have been reading, i am not comfortable doing so. I eagerly await your replies and instructions.

 

Sach2
No I do not have Nero burning software, I do have:
Magic DVD creator

 

Tried to download again, still cannot for the same reasons.
What is my next step?

I have logs I can post if you need them, let me know.
Thanks again folks!
Flywelder, await your replies.

 

Ok, some people related that error to Nero.

Download any small program using IE and see if it will run. That will tell us if it has something to do with your using the "No scripts" addon in FF.

Try http://www.freebytesoftware.com/download/hjsplit.zip Unzip it and go into the folder and double click the hjsplit file. You can just exit the program I just want to see if it downloads and runs. If you can unzip it the download is OK, if it doesn't run then it not a download problem but something else.

 

I did try to get a good download with fire fox and setting scripts to allow the entire page. and still no better results.
I will try with internet explorer.

 

Re: Tried the hjsplit.zip

I was able to down load this, and click on it and it opened, with no hassels, and I saw the install wizard asking me to choose to open this further and install. I closed all related windows, and came this forum to report my findings.

 

I would go ahead and try downloading Outpost's firewall installer using IE. Realize that the Download folder may be different than the one FF uses. Find the program and see if it runs.

Because you were able to download and unzip and run HJSplit I would think the problem could be your AntiVirus canceling the download. But I have never used AVG so I'm unsure. rolleyes Either that or larger downloads aren't completing.

 

Thanks to all!

Instead, I would like to ask for your recommendations for a firewall that will work with my XP 2003 home edition.
Please include links to download site fore each. Your links and suggestions have got to be better than me alone choosing.

Thanks again !

 

Hello ,
Forgive my delaid response. I have been sick and many other issues.
Sach2 I have used FireFox for so long , I had forgotten how easy it would be to switch back and forth from IE to FF . I am using IE right now while typing this.
Sach2 As U instructed me to, I attempted to download a firewall, and I was able to, but intentiaonally I did not complete the download.... so I think your thery of my AVG or something else is stopping downloads from completing. Now please tell me how to correct my fire fox and AVG. so i can correctly download again.

Also, please tell me some one, how I can get to the list and explanations for firewalls that is listed at major geeks web site?
weeks ago I read this list which explained the pros and cons of each firewall, and what not to activate with each one..a really great source of info! this will then provide me a good link to what ever firewall I choose.
I do not have a reliable link to download firewalls from right now, and I cannot find what I once had. I just spent one hr. searching major geeks for it, and no luck, I know it is there, somewhere.

Please send me a link to this and other links that will help me.
Again you folks are a very big help to me and others, I send a big thanks to each of you!

Flywelder's thoughts on the startup report

With my start up processes, I think there are far too many that start every time I boot up and, every time I choose to go on the Web.

I don't know which ones I need in both situations and seek your help, on which ones to control, and which ones I can have only start when, I click on their icon in my tool bar or, from the desk top or, by choosing them when, I click on the 'windows start button'.

When I go on to the internet I think I only want what i absolutely need to safely navigate the web...this will speed up my web surfing would it not?
Thanks, I look forward to your replies.

OOPS! Sorry. I had read that and forgot! .....became over excited and obsessed about the success we were having with fixing my computer....

Once again, Thanks for all the help each of you has given me.
