Drive driver corruption - NOT - M$ problem

[Lester Stiefel]

Hi all,

After "hard formatting", and performing diagnostics on
the hard disk on this system, I re installed the OS on a
FAT32 partition. I had no indicators like this one until
after I installed Norton and ACDsee8. The last suite I
installed under LocalSystem (with password that Windows asks
you to set during install), was Norton antiVirus and Norton
SystemWorks.

Upon startup, I checked the logs in the Applications
Actions area. During Startup Today, this was entered in the
list: (Note: there is binary/hex data included). The help
and support says. Drive/ driver cannot load file
(drive/driver corruption issue) AGAIN.

M$ HAS BLOWN IT BADLY THIS TIME.

There is no popup visible on screen.

I am getting BLOODY tired of this problem. I hope that my
lawyer will take action.

Drive is freshly "zeroed" , partitioned and reinstalled.

System Stats: Windows XPpro with all updates applied except
DotNetFramework.

I am removing the applications one at a time and trying to
locate the offender. I strongly suspect it is a security
hotfix from the 'critical' stack.

If this keeps up I'll be removing all M$ items and
transitioning to a freeware OS.

G'Day Lester,

If this keeps up ... removing all M$ items and ... freeware OS

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, ...

... getting BLOODY tired of this problem. I hope that my lawyer ... action.

things, disobedient to parents, ...

You are describing installing an infected application. It's not
Microsoft's responsibility to sanitize your sources. The popup might
well be a single pixel, one method for running a bot without user notice.
