I'm using Netscape 7.1 because IE6 is not working.
Each and every time I try to run IE, the "page cannot be displayed" message comes up on the page. This works for every single website I try to use.
I thought that it may have to do with the various trojans on the computer, so I ran several spyware/adware removers, and it deleted a bunch of spyware, and then I ran an Anti-Virus Check (using EZ Trust Anti-Virus), and it said there were 25 Java.ByteVerify.Exploit trojans, which I did get rid of by deleting the "jar" folder in Java.
So, I reran the AV program, and it showed no infections whatsoever.
But, IE didn't work anymore.
So, I tried to do the Control Panel>Add/Remove>Microsoft IE6>repair option, but it says that it cannot be repaired.
So, I followed through to get it restored to previous settings, and that failed horribly.
It still did not work, so after trying to uninstall/reinstall IE again, it keeps giving me Script errors every time I try and enter the Control Panel or System Restore (which I had to disable to run one anti-virus check).
So, I can't even access System Restore to save myself, and I can't get into the Control Panel.
I'm running out of options here, and I really don't want to have to format the hard drive again...
Please, please, please help... I am so desperate!!!
Keep in mind that restoring may have restored your trojan problems. Honestly, if it were my system, I'd back up my important stuff and reformat and reinstall Windows. If you post your system, I can give you a link to the reinstall guide for your system.
