Machine running winXP Home edition starts up with the message that
scrngrd.exe has encountered problems-----
Sounds like a screen saver or something ??
Your kind assistance please
I will check with MS in the meantime. Thank you,

Hi

Have you virus checked your system with the latest definitions for your Anti
Virus program?

Also please try these programs to check for any spyware that may be on your
system:

Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://forum.aumha.org/downloads/cwshredder.zip
Spy Sweeper - www.webroot.com

Try SpyWareBlaster to stop intrusions:

Thank you for the help.
It would appear that the machine is infected with the W32/Rbot-AA Worm.
So Far have not been able to get a virus checker (F-Prot or AVG)to run
either in normal mode or safe mode.
Have deleted all references to scrgrd in the registry but still not able
to run anti virus.
Kind regards,Richard
 
Thank you for your reply-----problem was W32/Rbot-AA virus amongst about
six others---my friends AV was not working !!!!!!!
