im no programmer\ i do have an old 3.12 netware certification but this is far beyond my skill level and im going crazy trying to solve this so please help me !!!
AND PLEASE DONT ASK ME TO DO A COMPLETE NEW INSTALL AS I PUT MY XP DISK IN A SAFE PLACE AND CANT REMEMBER WHERE...DUH
i recently install a new virus program (norton) and i didn't have this problem before i
installed it but i did disable it and still got the error
i have also tried system restore several times, and it comes back saying system restore could NOT restore and to try another restore point, which i have to no avail.As you are running win xp have you try System Restore yet?
Service pack 2 is not even that good mate because it limit your action, i did not installed it because i cant do stuff that i wanted to do so i will probably uninstalled that as well. = is your choice
But i dont think Service pack 2 has any cause to it.
Google showed curtainsSysSvcnt.exe comes from Comcast and is part of their security suite. Is Comcast your service provider? If not this could be malware posing as a valid application. Try checking your startup (msconfig) and see if you can turn off launching this program.
