IE search bar function Whacked out!

Simply, something screwed up my ability to search from my address bar. I've red 10,000 threads and haven't found a fix as of yet (even the google fix from Gen Lee Stoned failed).
Below is my HJT scan. ANY help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Fix these lines:
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O1 - Hosts: 12.129.205.209 search.netscape.com12.129.205.209 sitefinder.verisign.com
O1 - Hosts: 12.129.205.209 search.netscape.com12.129.205.209 sitefinder.verisign.com
O1 - Hosts: 12.129.205.209 search.netscape.com12.129.205.209 sitefinder.verisign.com

And then run the reg file here to restore default IE home/search pages:

This line belongs in 9x/ME, not XP
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SystemTray] SysTray.Exe
What folder is that file in?

Anyone ever seen that in XP??

And welcome to Major Geeks

 

Could it be that he upgraded from 9x and that is a vagrant file? Interesting...

 

Anyone ever seen that in XP??

Yep, just goes to show you that upgrades suck. systray does not do one dang thing in XP, yet when you upgrade from 9x, it is still on the system, and loaded in the registry. Its a leftover.

Every upgrade from Windows ME (and maybe 98) I've done/seen/heard of had this file left in XP.

 

That explains it.

You can fix that line too, herkymech.

 

GOOD MORNIG ALL! Thanks for the replies. I'm working the issues now and will let ya know what occurs. As for NvStartup, doesn't that belong to NAV?

 

SUCCESS! The brilliance of you all is abundant! I did remove Pop-up stopper, but I am keeping spy sweeper as I like it. I have the google popup blocker turned off and am using Sys Mechs blocker. I also disabled NERO but couldn't find the NvStartup in msconfig. I did see NavCpl...

 

There is no NvStartup, thats a command line switch for NvCPL.

 

Gottcha...After looking it up, I found it's for my NVidia card...still disable it?

 

It's OK to disable it, I've got mine disabled. You can always enable it again if you choose to.

 

Done! I truly appreciate all the help from each of you...it's nice to know one's not alone in the pc world...=)
