Default Most major programs crash when opened, system generally slow...


Hey,

So I got a couple of viruses, Sophus anti virus got rid
of them for me, but since, most major programs crash when
I open them. People have suggested to me to do an online
check, or search for certain files, but these are two of
the programs that crash upon startup. So I'm screwed.
What can I possibly do?

Thanks very much,
Mark.

Why do they fail ??
That is, what happens ??



When all else fails, one can try a repair install (this is
not the first place the install asks if you want to repair,
but the second). After a repair install, one must reapply
all service pack and security updates.
