I am going to assume this is an MSDN copy, as we do not condone, or support pirated copies of software here.

Lost My JAVA?

Hi Glenn When you have unzipped JavaRa, click to open it and then click Remove Older Versions, then install the updated Java version from Majorgeeks as it will save you hunting through the options at SUN.

Fair do's, i was just trying to keep it light hearted. *************************************** Quote: No problem. I'll go so far to say that all the firefox users infected with malware are gonna disagree with you. What exactly does some firefox users being infected with malware mean or prove?

no clue about Vista, but XP's so-called firewall does next to nothing to keep you really safe. if she never, ever, ever goes anywhere, except to get recipes (like recipezaar or allrecipes), and doesn't get any spam, then she MIGHT be okay. as financially challenged as i am, the one thing i didn't skimp on was a security suite. my KIS 2010 was $59.95 for a 1 year license for 1 pc (Kaspersky's site only has them for 3...

Neither CCleaner nor Auslogics Disk Defrag are security applications.
So they are not relevant.
SAS Free and MalwareBytes Free and SpywareBlaster have no real-time protection so again they are not relevant. The first two of these are for stand alone back up scanning and should be retained and kept up to date. SpywareBlaster has useful browser-based protection.
The only program in that list ...

G'day.
You could try a repair from your XP CD (put it in and select Repair option - I think you should be able to do that).
Keep in mind that this might actually be a hardware problem, or some unrelated software problem that has coincidentally raised its ugly head just when you ran Combofix. Think about connections, RAM, etc.
Maybe install the HDD as a slave (in another PC, or in your ...

What is your OS Vista ?
If it is Vista
1 go to the control panel
2 open up apperance and personilization
3 open personalization
4 In the left pane, click Change desktop icons, and then do one of the following:
To display / recover the Recycle Bin on the desktop, select the Recycle Bin check box.
5 Click OK.
XP dosen't have a delete, so you must be running Vista !

OK. I understand that this can be frustrating.
I have an idea. Please try downloading, installing, and running this (even if you have to do it in safe mode):

But first: did you try last known good configuration from the f8 menu?

If you scroll down here you will see your exact error message and AVG's solution:

Do be sure to begin though that you followed the correct procedure for upgrading from AVG versions below 9, to the latest.
You needed to have obtained the latest set up file, you can get it here:

Greetings, uzi451...
Are the "####"'s in your post made by you, or are they what are actually showing up on the blue screen?
Also, do you have your XP disk available? If so, are you able to boot to the disk?
One more question: have you made sure your machine is malware-free?

You guys have always helped me so I am counting on you. Everytime F/F upgrades into a newer version its a TRAINWRECK! Normally the side effects are small and just annoying, but this time its bad.
I guess it upgraded into the newest version on Wenesday and now none of 3 printers will print. All I get is blank pages. I already did the "config" in the location bar, and reset the printers like ...

Hi - Welcome to MajorGeeks
Open Internet Explorer and go to www.windowsupdate.com and look carefully at what comes up after it searches, and look to see if anything is 'hidden'. On the left if you see a 'Restore Hidden Updates' then click on it.

Hi. I have moved your post to it's own thread. It's always better to start your own.
You will have to be specific. What operating system (XP, Vista, etc.)? Does it happen with other browsers (Internet Explorer)? Have you tried reinstalling Firefox?

Upgrade? On a laptop? Is that ever worth it?
Computer store charges like 90 bucks an hour. Any attempt to tweak the RAM after market will cost me WAY more than buying a fancier machine in the first place. We're talking about the sub-$200 range, after all!
And, no, I'm not qualified to do it myself. I might attempt it on the OLD pc, but I'm certainly not going to learn by busting ...
