Answer» Quote from: casse2go on November 01, 2007, 12:55:39 AM Well, Since I know jack about the computer; how about someone siting at one surrounded by question marks. Or something that conveys the same message. That word "siting" is misspelled. It should be "sitting". I like my CT and text. Can that be made into one? Okay now on to the business at hand. I went into "Start Up" to comply with your directive to uncheck. Here's what did. I clicked out of AOL, then went to desk top, I then did what you asked and when I had finished, this came up. An Access Denied error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an administrator account to make the specified changes. I then clicked OK and the prompt to RESTART came up so I clicked it. Wait, somewhere in there came the msg to choose to start the computer using the Normal Start Up. You prolly already know the window but here it is anyway. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION UTILITIES Start Up Selection empty circle: Normal Start Up empty circle: Diagnostic Start Up green dot in circle: Selective Start Up green check: Process System.INI File green check: Process Win.INI File green Check: Load System Services green square in square: Load Start Up Item green dot in circle: Use Original Boot.InI gray obscured: Use Modified Boot.INI [Load Syetem Restore] [Expand File] Close Cancel Apply Help I "Xed Out"... The msg about Access Denied came up again. Also, I went into the ADD/REMOVE programs to undo the McAfee items but they weren't in there so how do I get to them? Is it through the Notepad? This is what was in the ADD/REMOVE, is there anything you think I can ditch? adobe flash player 9 activeX adobe shockwave player AOL registration AOL uninstaller (choose PRODUCT to remove) AVG 7.5 google toolbar for Internet Explorer HijackThis 1.99.1 java (tm) 6 update 2 jave (tm) 6 update 3 *learn2player {uninstall only) microsoft easy assist *microsoft internationlized domain names mitigation APIs *microsoft national language support download APIs quick time real player basic viewpoint media player windows installer 3.1 (kb893802) Those with the "*", I have no idea what they're for. Unless they go with the Easy Assist. Thanks Broni... Quote I clicked out of AOL, then went to desk top, I then did what you asked and when I had finished, this came up.Go Start>Run, type in: services.msc Find those two O23 entries: - McAfee Real-time Scanner (McShield) - McAfee SystemGuards (McSysmon) For each of them, follow this: If under STATUS column, you see Started, right click on entry, and click Stop. Right click again, click Properties, under Startup type select Disable from drop-down menu. Restart your computer. You may post new HJT log for me to see, if all changes has taken effect. Quote green dot in circle: Selective Start UpThis is correct. Click OK, and Windows will ask you, if you want to restart your computer now, or later. UPON restart, you'll see a pop-up message, stating, that your computer started in Selective Mode. Put a checkmark in "Don't show this message again", and click OK. Quote I like my CT and text. Can that be made into one?You mean to have a text inside your picture? Quote I went into the ADD/REMOVE programs to undo the McAfee items but they weren't in there so how do I get to them?Most likely McAfee is long gone, but you have some registry leftovers, which still call for McAfee ("normal" with crappy programs). We'll worry about it later. For now, follow instructions from my previous post. Quote learn2playerIt looks like some AOL leftover. You can safely uninstall it. As for two M$ entries, you better leave them alone.Quote I like my CT and text. Can that be made into one? You mean to have a text inside your picture? Hi, no...not inside, but underneath as it appears in the CT. By the way, does the color tag work in here? Also, do you know how many pieces of mail the mailboxes in here hold? Yes, and I was correct to go offline with AOL before I went to msconfig wasn't I?The word "Started" wasn't by either Broni. I just "Xed Out".What do you mean by "xed out". You can't do this with services. What did you have under Status column?There wasn't anything by eitherof them, so just clicked on the red "X" in the northeast corner of the page, next to enlarge and minimize the page. I call it Xing Out. |
