I am running XP Home Edition with Adaware, Spyware Blaster, Zone Alar
firewall and Norton Anti-Virus. Despite all that, a program called Vie
Manager got in along with some Brilliant Digital and AltNet malware.
believe I have gotten rid of all the junk but the residual effect i
rundll32.exe and explorer.exe freezes. The rundll32 freeze occurs whe
I access Internet Properties and try to clear the History button. Th
system hangs and when I go to Control/Alt/Delete, I get a listing o
running processes. When I try to close that window, I get an erro
message that rundll32.exe is not responding and I have to hit End Task
Similarly when I go to Task Bar and Start Menu Properties and then tr
to close that window, I get a message stating explorer.exe is no
responding and I again have to use End Task. I should add that the las
Adaware and Norton scans are clear and I have run both of those wit
System Restore disabled. Can anyone help

To repair all system files, go to Start/Run, and type (or paste in): SFC /SCANNOW
