Oh dear.

So my computer appears to have got hot and heavy with a virus - it was being all pop-up-y, and all 'I'm going to run like a bitch-y', so I ran a few virus scans, including 'Avast', which according to the internetz0rz, is good.

Now when I turn it on, it comes up with a rundll error box, saying it couldn't initialize some program, and now I have nothing on my desktop and no Start Menu. Curiously, I appear to be able to run programs via the Task Manager 'New Task' button, but I kind of need My Docs, Computer, etc.

The fuck is going on?

Holy shit, Matt, you are amazing. It still came up with a 'Rundll32.exe' error, but hey, there's all my stuff!



You rule at life.

I would love to help. But I don't know the first thing about P.Cs.



Have you tried googleing the problem. A lot of the time if you copy and paste the error text into a P.C help forum people will have had the same problem and you can see how they fixed it.

yeah sounds like your computer is still a bit screwed but explorer.exe is the program that runs your desktop and start menu interface type stuff.



I use it sometimes when my start menu is a twit and won't disapear properly.

I think something messing up with your Windows registry. Clean your PC from any rubbish (I recommend Kaspersky, do a thorough scan root). Then do a repai installation of your Windows.



You could also try some Windows registry recoverer.

Thanks Dozer, I shall do those things...once I've written this German essay....



It is still being screwy Matt, I can't open 'Add or Remove Programs', so I'll have to reinstall Windows in the next day or so. Lame.

Congrats.

I was in a book once. Well, not me, technically, my wife. And she was nude, with her eyes obscured by a black box. And it wasn't a book, it was a magazine. And it wasn't my wife, just some chick I was looking at. Whilst naked."
