Can someone please help me, I am having big computer problems. The problem is
that when I try to open programs, they dont open. I get an hourglass next to
my cursor and then nothing happens. I press alt+ctrl+del and same thing
happens. Then I leave the computer and about 10 mins later all the programs
open up together. I have spyware and antivirus programs. I've done full scans
with norton, trendmicro and panda antivirus, and with microsoft antispyware,
spybot and ad-aware. Everything comes up clean. I even done chkdsk(the hard
drive scanner in xp). I am very careful with security and have all windows
updates. At the same time this started happening there were problems with MSN
messenger. We have 3 computers on my network, but only mine is having the
aforementioned problems, however, on all 3 when MSN messenger signs in now it
freezes and is "Not Responding". Of the other computers one is win xp and the
other is win 98. Using windows messenger works but on all 3 msn messenger
freezes as soon as anyone signs in. All started happening at the same time.
For the unresponsive programs I done a system restore to 2 weeks earlier,
long before the problem was happening. This temporarily fixed the problem but
the it started happening again after a few days. Then I undone the system
restore and that fix it for a few days, and now once again it is doing it
again. Can anyone please help me cause I have no idea what to do?
Any help so greatly appreciated.
