A couple days ago, certain programs such as Limewire and certain websites
which I believe utilize Java suddenly stopped working (e.g. the limewire just
doesn't open and the sites simply cause the explorer window to close...even
the Java site). My fear was that I deleted something I shouldn't have during
a routine spyware scan. Suggestions were made (on this site..thanks to those
who replied) to scan for potential viruses and spyware...I've done all the
scans suggested and still no luck. At this point, I'm considering using my
Windows XP CD to somehow "fix" Windows as I am at a total loss. Is this
possible, and if so, can somebody like myself (a competent, but somewhat
novice PC guy) do it? Ideally, I would just bring my PC into some IT place,
but my starving student budget is a little tight right now! Thanks for any
suggestions!
