Hello,
I installed a programme called my search bar some time ago. I have recently
deleted it. Since then the search command accessed from the start button
freezes for about a minute and then fails to display. i can still access the
search from windows explorer screen though.
I have reinstalled the search files from the windows xp cd to no effect. Is
there anything else i can try?
