Try repairing IE by going to Start/Run, and typing in SFC /SCANNOW (note space between "SFC" and "/". Have your XP CD ready, it will ask for it.

I have antispy on my computer, but it's never had to do anything. I routinely use SpyBot and AdAware, and neither has ever brought up a necessary file/folder for deletion. They are very dependable programs.

Do you have SP1 and the updates installed for XP and IE?

do you mean that spybot do nothing? i noticed that even after SPYBOT clean & fix the problems nothing change in the computer.
i have to find XP CD first to repair IE. it is not my comp & i've got trouble so i try to fix it & don't want nobody know about that.
whats SP1? and how can i check if i have updates installed for XP and IE?

but this computor also working slowly i don't know why, i already made defragmentation & cleaned temp internet files and it still work slowly even when i am not connected to the net.
and one more thing: you know when you make double click on icon the "send-clock" added to the arrow of the mouse. So my arrow always stay in this position, even if i don't do anything, no touch, not open - nothing. and some sites coming up by themselves when i connected. what should i do with all this nasty staf. say me please how to save it.
