Working on a laptop for a friend, and she had multiple user accounts setup
and wanted me to delete all but hers.
When i go into User accounts in the control panel it opens up a blank window
with a home, back and forward buttons but that's it.
I tried booting in safe mode and logging in as administrator and get the
same result.
I tried running SFC /scannow to see if any system files had been corrupted
and that didn't help.
Im also unable to open Help and Support for XP.
The system did have a few viruses and spyware. I cleaned it up using
MacAfee's command line scanner and then installed Antivir, Adaware, Spybot,
CWS Shredder and scanned and deleted the appropriate files. Ran another full
system virus scan with Antivir and the system appears clean.
I can browse the internet, but IE hangs when i go to Windows update when it
try's to check for the windows updater tool.
Stumped at the moment and considering starting from scratch. Any ideas?
