MU offered 5 updates. Malicious removal, 3 Office 2003 updates and this
one, which is strange because Office 2007 is not on this machine and never
has been.

Security Update for Microsoft Office system 2007 (KB951808)

Didn't accept it. Waiting to see what others report. This is on WinXP Pro
SP3.

When I went there, I had to update something before I could get anything. I
did the update, and only recieved the Malicious tool, then it wanted me to
install SP3. I skipped it. I have XP Pro SP2, no Vista or WD. So only 1
update for me.

Tim,

You hit that one. I just checked "Add/Remove Programs" and sure enough,
there it was, "Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system."

Thanks,

and save it to your hd



1. Run Ccleaner to clean out all temp and temporally internet files



2. Go to Documents and Settings/(your username), Local Settings/ Temp

A. Empty all the .temp files that are listed. The ones that have
today's date will not remove.



3. Empty the Recycle Bin



4. Run your AVG antivirus Program and remove any viruses or spyware.



5. Update & Run Adaware 2007 (if you have it), Spybot Search and Destroy,
Superantispyware



6. Put the cursor on the desktop where there are no icons and right click.
Highlight and click "Properties"

Go to the Screensaver Tab- Click the down arrow until you see "None" and
make sure it shows up in the box.

Next click on the "Power" tab

Make sure all of the boxes have "Never" and click "OK"



7. Check Disk and Defrag the computer.

Before doing this, everything on the right side of the
taskbar that has an "Exit" or a "Close" needs to be removed.





8. Once you have Defragged the computer restart the computer.



9. When the computer loads up- you must again need to remove the ones
on the right side of the taskbar as in pictures A &B above (ONLY if it has
an EXIT or a CLOSE.

11, Unplug from the internet.



12. Now go to the folder where you put the exe of sp3 and double click it



13. Follow the instructions that sp3 gives. Don't be alarmed on some
computers it could take up to an hour to completly install and don't be
alarmed once the computer reboots because it could take a few minutes to
load up.



14. Once everything looks fine- check around and make sure things are ok-
re connect back to the internet and see if you have internet service.



15. Defrag the computer again and reboot. (this is just so everything that
got moved around goes back in place)



16. Re enable AVG resident shield and firewall



If you follow these instructions it should load fine.
