PROGRAMS NOT RESPONDING

Which version of Windows are you running?  Have you tried to use System Restore to go back to a configuration present before this problem started?  Did you add any new software or hardware just prior to this problem appearing?  When you scanned with Norton Antivirus, did you do so with up-to-date virus definitions?

Steve

If your using Xp, try to identify any system error messages by doing this:

Go to your Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer Check under the System Tab for any listed error messages. If any are found, repost them in a new thread or go to http://www.google.com and input the error message in the search box to see if solution may be listed. Kip

Hi,

You have got  a trojan/spyware etc.

Download and run

Spybot Search & Destroy    http://www.majorgeeks.com/download2471.html 

If that does not find it you will have to use

HijackThis                            http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/

 

try MSCONFIG use this to link to Help Identify the programs

You might also use it to identify what is running in the background and not listed in MSCONFIG

CTRL-ALT-DEL in the Task Manager Look on the Processes Tab

I did as you suggested I have over 75 messages.

Some say System.

You need to clarify your last two posts,  Ran what program, and get not responding when trying to run what program?  Kip

Hi,

Is it the spyware programs you cant run?

If you can get online, here are two excellent scanners which might find something.

http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

http://www.trojanscan.com/

I found 2512 events.

I am sorry that I am not computer savey

I found 2512 items in the event viewer. 

I ran Spybot and found 43 items and removed them.

 

I`m not sure what you mean.  Did you run the scanners and they found and fixed 2512 problems?

Is your system OK now?

Please don`t apologise.  We all started out knowing nothing.  Just try to give us as much informaton as possible when you post.

So,  what is happening now?

Here is what you need to do.  Go back to the event viewer and click on three items in the left column, ie application, system, security one at a time.  While your looking at lets say the system file, on the top toolbar click the Action Tab, then click clear all events.  Do that for system, security and application.  The idea being were trying to isolate what is happening to your system.  So, once you do the above, reboot.  Immediately go back to the event viewer once you get to your desktop and check the application and system columns.  See if there are any events listed.  What we need is the exact error message you see there in order to assist you.  Kip

Thank you for your patience.  In the middle of this problem I moved.  Back to the problem.  When I rebooted and found 0 Application Events - 36 Security Events and 30 System Events.  I found no errors.
