IE7 opens/closes immediately, firefox crashes in 10 mins.

Deleting the weather channel program shouldn't cause any problems. I would try it.

What are the remaining items in that log? Can I rid of them as well?

Which remaining items?

These remaining files anti malware located on its sweep, the others were the weather channel files which I'd already deleted. I'm not quite sure what these files are and what I could screw up by ridding of them:

Yes, they have to go too.

OK cool. I greatly appreciate all your help, you have no idea!

Don, if you won't shoot me for asking another question, I've been having problems deleting old, unused shortcuts from my programs list in the start menu. The programs have been removed but the shortcuts remain. And I cannot click and drag the shortcuts to place them in order any more either. Any idea on that one??

You can ask all the questions you want. Try Unlocker. It's a free program. What error message are you getting?

No error messages, just the inability to remove or relocate shortcuts in the program menu.

What antivirus protection do you recommend? I was doing fine with Mc until this mess. And I won't even get into Norton...

I don't recommend any Anti Virus. I think they are worthless. There is too much of a time lag between the day a virus is released into the wild and the day AV companies add it to their dat files. During that time, thousands of PCs are infected.

I prefer to lock my registry with MJ Registry Watcher.

If you click on an attachment, which you should never do unless you requested it, the changes in the registry will be rejected, stopping the install.

Cool, I'll try that and see how it works for me.

LOL, wow Don, the more cool programs you give me to play with, the more questions I have! Installed unlocker and was playing with it a little. It's not helping me in removing unwanted/unused shortcuts in the programs menu, but when I right click the start button and click unlock, it brings up three processes: 2 Explorer.EXE's and my Reg Watcher. Why 2 Explorers? That is what keeps windows open correct? But I can't figure out two of them? It says the path locked for one is C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Start Menu\Programs for the first and C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Start Menu for the second. But both process paths are C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE. I'm lost once again? Could this be and IE problem?? I didn't hit unlock or any other option due to being unsure of the results.

First of all, you can't uninstall programs or make changes that involve the registry if Reg Watcher is set on reject. Set it to accept, then try it. If you still can't get delete certain things and it's bringing up explorer, it could be that it's running and has to be stopped first. I don't see why that would happen with a shortcut but who knows? Click start, run, type msconfig, press enter and go to the startup tab. Most of that stuff doesn't need to load at boot time and can be unchecked. Uncheck what you don't need to load, click apply and reboot. Click ok on the dialog box and try to delete those things again. If you still can't get rid of them, you might have to do it from the administrator's account.

OK, I've made some changes to the startup tab, which I'd done before, but needed to redo again. I still can't alter Programs in the Start Menu. How do I do it from the admin account?
