If you're having a difficult time finding your Windows XP disc, you maybe able to contact your computer manufacturer and see if they'd be willing to send you a Windows XP disc so that you can perform a SFC /scannow scan.

Wonderful, thanks for the tip!

Thank you for your patience, and performing all of the procedures requested.

Thank you for yours! This is such a fabulous site that is so very helpful . . . My computer truly is running better than it has been in a long time, thank-you so much! Not only do I have my malware issue resolved, but everything else is in better condition too. It's amazing to think that this great help you've given to me, you're giving to a lot of people right now also (not to mention all the countless people you've helped in the past and will help in the future.) The volunteer work you're doing here really is one of the nicest things I've seen going on in this world, it's incredible! I hope I have some extra cash soon so I can financially back up my thanks because I really am so very appreciative. (I'm glad you have a paypal donation link in your signature!)

Thanks again, you're amazing! :thumbsup:
