    After downloading Ad-aware from this website on my laptop, I now get the following error message at startup and I can't log into programs or the internet.

    svchost.exe Application error
    The instruction at "0x65f4a718" referenced memory at "0x00000018". The memory could not be read. Click on OK to terminate.


    I went into the "safe" mode and tried to "system restore" to an earlier date, but it says it can't do a restore.

    Help!

    cobber1, I doubt if AdAware is the source of your problems. Too many of us use it and there would be lots of posts here if it was causing trouble.

    Check out an old post on svchost.exde and svhost.exe

    What antivirus software have you on your system? Is it up to date with latest definitions. Do you run a firewall? More info on your hardware, OS, and installed software would help us. Do you run any Registry cleaner, etc. Bazza

    BTW, welcome to MG. Baz
