WINDOWS FILE PROTECTION

With every boot/reboot Windows File Protection shows up; letting it do its
thing doesn't seem to finish the exercise; spy ware and av are updated and
run regularly as are the chkdsk and defrag.

Is there anything to be done to help with this hang-up?

Thanks,

Hi, SWL.

Have you run the System File Checker recently? At the Run prompt, enter:
sfc /scannow

SFC will compare each operating system file with the "known good" copy held
in your on-disk cache and replace any missing or damaged ones. Have your
WinXP CD-ROM handy; SFC probably will need to see that.

Yes, I have tried this already and it may have been what started this mess in
the first place.

Try running sfc /revert.
