Help Me sythe...Plz!

its windows explorer, it could really be anything in the system
my laptop was taken down by this last week, i just ran a system restore, and it was fine the next reboot

 

uh...What?

 

If I were in your situation I would format your computer. First save all your important files to a disk for a flash drive. If that is not an option I would system restore.

 

Honestly dude, you need to get your head out of your ass. The kid was simply offering some advice that might help him no need to get your nuts in a knot.

As cool already noted it is not IE, and FireFox is very overrated. not quite sure why people like FireFox so much, It's a bit slower than IE, not many good benefits from it. and I have never had a problem with IE.

 

Get a resident adware scanner, virus scanner, and then download a firewall that scans all incoming and outgoing packets; such as Sygate Personal Firewall.

Cheers.

 

Get my head out of my ass? You try moderating (it's not as simple as it sounds) a whole forum, with people just posting stupid things like "OMG leik it muts be da viruss you beter do a format computer or System take back!!11!!!" or just the simple " I dunno..."(yes the ellipses make it so much more worthwhile reading). How can you tell me to get my head out of my ass when I'm actually taking time out to help someone with their problem (it's the system(EXPLORER.EXE IS THE WINDOWS EXPLORER!!!)) and have idiots coming out of the woodwork left right and centre. I resent that.

Firefox is arguably the best browser available for many reasons. As for it being slow, it can be tweaked to allow for much higher speeds then IE can (type about:config in the URL bar).

Did I quote you? No I wasn't referring to you.

Stop spamming.

 

yea...whats the point in that beside's your abusing self

and no its not IE you crackers it probley because he likes to download stuff he shouldnt download

and as said he should run a virus remover (anti virus)

Mozzila isnt better than ie

 

Ok guys no need to fight.. i've tried to system restore my comp but when i press "next" it dosnt do ANYTHING. i've waited like 20mins then got bored so i closed it...

Any one know why it wont restore?

edit: and to jamz, i really think cool is just doing his job, people who post here and dont know what the fuck they are talking about are just spamming/annoying people. he did and said the right things.

 

Thankyou!

Do you still have the Windows XP disk?

 

No unfortunatly i dont... i think my "system restore" got removed...

 

try this:
1. Press the Windows key + R. This will open the "Run" command box.
2. Type in: rstrui.exe [Enter]

 

it says windows cant find it...

 

Sorry about double post, i've searched it and it found the file, i've clicked on it. but all it does is turn WHITE. not sure what to do... i've open and closed it twice... seeMs to have no effect.

 

Hmmm... try booting into Safe Mode first. Then run the system restore. If that doesn't help, Open up the run dialog again and type in "regedit" (without the quotes) and navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore
and delete all REG_DWORDs and REG_SZs (except default first entries) there ( try this as a last resort, because messing with the registry can be dangerous)
