If it is really called Win 32 Kernel (with the spaces and that capitalization) then no, absolutely do not. If it was win32Kernel and especially...
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot Not a baddie but not needed at startup and...
The 'compress old files' piece can take what seems like just this side of forever to scan for and then to fix. The good news is that after it's...
Looks lots better and hopefully performing better as well. As expected, still a couple things that need fixing. First item - I really don't...
It's a glitch in Spybot. Harmless finding. Delete it every time if you want. Ignore it every time if you want. Hopefully they will have the...
I'm betting on cable problems too. You don't say exactly what 'doesn't work' includes but try this. Install the new NIC in the PC and have...

You might have done better to have waited before removing those since there is other stuff you need to do for complete removal sometimes. R3 -...
The below will get a good start on fixing your problems. Won't do it all this first time but will help. You will need to do exactly what is...

Did you move Hijackthis and use it to remove the entries? I'm a little suspicious of other 'download helper' things you have loaded. Not...
blackdog - status?
Short of getting XP-pro for both PCs I'm not sure there is a good fix. "Simple File Sharing" can also be called "Limited File Sharing" and...
Sorry for the delay in answering you. Was fishing from Friday AM thru Sunday PM and still sorta tired. Will give a sensible answer tomorrow...
