Marc

Are any other components of Windows not working e.g. Event Viewer? Some
malware disables items which can help resolving system problems!

What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements? Are they
working?

Hope this helps.

I have EXACTLY same problem. I followed Andrew's instructions, to no
effect. However in Safe mode I could not start the task scheduler,
said it couldn't be started in Safe Mode or somethinbg like that.

Other systems are that when I start Windows Live Mail client, I get
message that Outlook Express wants to compress its data base.

Event Manager, Componet Services, Service etc all seem to run OK.

Only odd thing was that the MS Firewall sprang to life when I started
Component Services asking if it was allowed to access the 'net, I said
no - I've not run Component Services previously, not event sure what
it's for. When I ran it a second time no Firewall message - can one
see what programs and ports the FW has enabled.

I run Windows firewall, Windows Defender and AVG Free - AVG found a
trojan horse about a week ago, but these problems on manifested over
past 24 hours, the trojan could have been a smoke screen for a time
bombed virus.

Errata : "Other <systems> I have --" s/b "Other <symptoms> I have"

Re - Outlook Express. At install I used Control Panel Add or Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components to set
it off - I believe this removes the component. If you turn something on that was off then I think one is requested to
insert the XP Install CD into a drive -- I think.

Re - Re Protection. I've had the Kapersky Suite sitting in my in tray for a couple of weeks waiting to be installed. So
I installed it, it found two instances of the Packed.Win32.Monder.gen trojan which were removed. But I still have the
Task Manager disfunction, and this Outlook Express message popping up when I start Windows ive.
