It will not solve your problem, but it will allow us to determine whether this is browser-related. If using Firefox doesn't exhibit the kind of problems you mentioned, then this should be related to Internet Explorer.

thank you for replying,actually it worked,with mozilla I can do everything as normal.what should I do now?? kill IE??

Unless Chia wants to pass this out of malware 'stage' then i cant advise you just yet but im sure chia will be back online sometime soon.

thank you Upgrader,but...if it were you......what would you do!??

Wait for chia's reply.

Upgrader, if you've any ideas bring them on.

For now, try reinstalling Internet Explorer to see if this would do the trick. The following steps are for IE6 though, so there may be minor differences as you are using IE7.

1. From the Start menu, select Search. If you're using the Windows XP Classic Start menu, then select For Files or Folders... .
2. Click All files and folders. Select More Advanced Options and click to place a checkmark beside Search hidden files and folders.
3. Ensure that Search system folders and Search subfolders are also checked.
4. In the "All or part of the file name:" field, enter ie.inf .
5. In the "Look in:" drop-down menu, select C: or the letter of the hard drive that contains the Windows folder. Then click the Search button.
6. In the search results pane, right-click the ie.inf file located in the Windows\Inf folder and select Install.
7. Reboot the computer when the file copy process is complete.

The instructions above are based on information from: Repair Internet Explorer 6

I Chia,
I am sorry but last night I went crazy and I decided to get rid of IE7 so I uninstalled it via the add/remove, I went on the regedit and I deleted all the IE things. I know I messed my pc up because even if I was able to install (I don't know how) IE6, I still can't connect to the update site. I tried out your last suggestion but I wasn't able to do anything good.I cannot even use mozilla, my laptop is isolated from the web.And also I cannot even use the system restore,its window dosen't even want to appaire.
Could you kindly give me some sugestions? please don't tell me I have to reformat it!!

Thank you very much. Thomas
