I also have had nothing but problems with SP2 and certain programs would not work since downloading it :smileysad: So I decided to remove it and now those programs are still not working! Any advice?  Also since this all has been going on Norton has been "misbehaving" and keeps telling me my definitions are out of date when they really are not!? I do the live updates everytime and yet it says out of date :smileymad:

Thanks for your help.  Its sorted now but in the end the computer crashed and I had to reformat the hard drive and reinstall.  The computer is working well now, fingers crossed!
