hoo boy...that post 94....look, it's 6:45 PM....I'm hungry, and I have no idea what you did!

But you're a hero, nonetheless.

(I really liked Greg Lake's work on the original King Crimson....)

To the great Freeper community....Thank you. I'll be back tomorrow to try to slay this blingin dragon.

You might wish to disable your system restore when doing this sort of thing: it often restores the crap you remove (like viruses and spyware). So you cure yourself, reboot and restore puts it right back for you.

Good idea!....might work....but will I lose my work...(in the form of word documents, mainly) that I have saved to a folder on the desktop?

Might be a real stupid question, but I've never used system restore....THANKS!

No - sys restore creates a restore point to go back to - nothing to do with data. If you feel uncomfortable, do a back up (which you should be doing anyway). I smoke all of my stuff to DVD and my ipod frequently just in case something happens.
