Oh yeah, kill one, then try to open up an app, and see if it's any faster.

Repeat the above process for those 6 processes

synaptics is my touchpad for my laptop. I don't think I should kill it. Although, I am using a mouse. I will try a reboot first...

Antivirus is on free-av.com
For recovery of messages go to C:\WINDOWS.000\Application Data\Identities\{C some weird number 3AED3B6703}\Microsoft\Outlook Express
this is the directory where are messages.
In outlook go to file - import > messages > chose program > import mail from directory. Do you remmember that directory above? Right it is the ONE.

When you'll try to recover messages from your backup it would be the right way to do so.

BTW your gf should send you the error message.

And your computer could use some regclean.

[Ted Striker]

Yeah it sounds like a regclean is in order also.

ok. thank you. You seem to know your stuff, so:

1. What is regclean. What does it do, disadvantages, etc.

2. I will get her to send the error message or to write it down.

3. WRT the Outlook situation: any ideas where her old messages and adresses and such are? (different problem...but she renamed a file that had outlook in it (I guess) to not have her hubby's name on it. And it made it so that outlook looked brand new. she changed it back and all but can't find the old messages and stuff.

rebooting fixed my immediate problem. But how do I regclean. I will do that.

[Ted Striker]

You'll need to download a registry cleaner.

Suggestions raghar?

You could always try Poly's parasite checker, see if that turns out anything...

What is this?

[Ted Striker]

I believe that's when you go to the front page of Apolyton, it will check your computer to see if you have a parasite. If you don't have it it won't show.

(It'll actually say on the front page if you have the parasite).

[TCO]

(this is too obvious a setup but...) How do I get to the "front page of Apolyton"?

[Ted Striker]

[TCO]

I went there. Couldn't find anyplace where it told me whether I had a parasite or was free. Maybe Mark doesn't have that feature anymore?
