I just went to the site and it has pop-up adds. Maybe PC tune-up raised security settings in all

browsers. You may have to reset those settings. For IE7 open Control Panel>Internet Options>

Security. Not sure on FireFox.

Thanks for the quick response. I just tried that and it did not work, I made sure sookies were enables and turned the pop up blocker off.  I also followed the advise in another thread sililar to this one to no avail. "Your security setting level puts your computer at risk" << Not sure my nerves coudl handle seeing that all the time! ( thats what it said when I changed the security settings)

I also can not use any sytem restore point previous to the dell tune up.

Dell PC Tuneup also caused some problems for me...   after running the Dell PC Tune-up utility, my Dimension E310 desktop system's network runs about 10% as fast as it did before the Dell PC TuneUp utility...   Other than the network speed slowdown, the rest of the system seems fine.

 

Now the online steaming video for some classes I'm taking times out.  It was working fine before I ran the PC Tune-up utility.

 

The utility sets a system restore point, but doesn't allow me to restore to anything before the utility ran.  :-(

 

I ran the Windows Live OneCare utility as suggested above, but that didn't fix the problem.

 

I installed everything Windows Update suggested, including IE7, but that also did not fix the problem.

 

My other Dell system (Latitude D620) on the same network is still running at "normal" speed, and I haven't made any system configuration changes for months, so I'm pretty sure the slowdown is due to the Dell PC Tuneup utility.

 

Need some expert help on this.  Any suggestions out there?
