There is apparently something that simulates Fatal Core Errors, so you think your computer is blitzed. Couldn't find more information, unfortunately. I'd really recommend getting another browser. Opera 7.50 is great, it has blocking of unwanted pop-ups, spyware doesn't target opera.exe or files in the opera directory... Firefox ditto. Also, my previous computer ran for six years without reformatting the disk. It became wobbly a couple of times, but cleaning the registry by hand restored it. (It had about 16 MB free disk space in the end.) This computer became wobbly after I stupidly installed a couple of antivirus programs together for a test and then even more stupidly didn't think to uninstall in Safe mode. Stupid, stupid, stupid. But it's still working quite okay in spite of about 8 GB Program Files directory. I will be forced to reinstall since I have a new disk, which I've been postponing for a month... Ang, yes, as AS says, the vermin will settle in C. Usually in Windows and WindowsSystem and WindowsSystem32 directories. And in registry. OTOH, if you have executable programs stored on D, a virus might infect them, so it's a good idea to scan that one, too. Finally, Zhann, if you find you missed a program, ask me or ask here. I'm certain we can find almost anything.
