Hi,

Yeserday I noticed that the hourglass icon appeared next to my mouse pointer icon and will not go away. When I shut down my computer, I got the following message:

"Windows protection error. You need to restart your computer. System halted."

I used Adaware, Spybot, and Pest Patrol but nothing worked. Please advise. Thank you!

I'd be somewhat surprised if any of those did rectify the problem - - those are anti-adware applications, not blanket cure-alls

I'm not one of those who think Bill Gates is the devil. I simply suspect that if Microsoft ever met up with the devil, it wouldn't need an interpreter.
