    Hi
    OK
    Please download this and post the Main txt log.

    Please download Deckard's System Scanner (dss.exe) and save it to your Desktop.
    Note: You must be logged onto an account with administrator privileges to complete the following.
    • Close all other windows before proceeding.
    • Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
    • When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy and then paste the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.

    hi sorry i've been away

    but good news my tab is back,
    everything working great Cheers Geri
    i know it wasn't the best thing to do but there wasn't much on my computer any way i'm wiating for my new hard drive to come in the post,
    so i never really installed much.

    i deleted the partition, formated my drive to ntfs and reinstalled xp
    i hadn't realised how slow my machine had got until now. now i click on an icon and "IT OPEN STRAIGHT AWAY" how good's that
    i'm reinstalling all my av and such like so that i keep safe but.

    the missing tab thingie i've been reading a lot some say it could be caused by viruses some say lavasoft ad_aware.

    i don't want to install lavasoft ad_aware if it's going to happen again.


    what do you think?
    is Avast + spybot S&D enough?

    once again thank for all your time and effort
    i'll give you a break from me i think i post some Question in a different thread

    Hi carljohnson
    OK, That's good.

    I haven't seen that about Ad-Aware, but it could be?

    Here is some recommendations, Ad-Aware is good, but you don't have to have it.

    Please look at this link for some preventive recommendations, It could keep you from ending up back here to the Spyware and Virus Removal Forms.

    You're welcome, that's why I come here. :)

    Good luck with that new HD, if you need help, our people over in the hardware section are great.

    cheers i've just been posting
    not very happy we've got storms here
    wrote a really big essay just before posting power went off:mad:
    not a happy bunny

    i'll always follow what you say
    you say that i should have two (sypbot & ad-aware)
    it's just with that tab thing it was a bit annoying
    don't want to go down that road again


    but apart from that thank you are a star for helping:)
