Hi, folks. Sorry by my English. That's my problem:
My computer system is a XP-2003-Service Pack 3 - Internet Explorer 8. I had a problem with malware my computer. I did download Spybot and - supposelly - it was removed. However, after that, I couldn't access internet thru IE8. Plus, several task wasn't able anymore. For example: going to the "Start", left side of the two existing columns (I have in there at the left column the icons to Internet Explorer, Firefox, Adobe Reader, and others Microsoft Office programs listed on and, to the right side, I have My Documents, My Pictures, My Computer Control Panel, Help, Search, Run and few more icons). To the left icon, if I clicking mouse left button at IE, for example, nothing happen. Than if I clicking with the right button and then "Open" it browse me to the page but doesn't connect (it keeps working but doesn't go into). However, the full icons at the right side works normally (clicking with the left side of the mouse. Note: I did check the Mouse configuration and it is OK).
So, I decided to uninstall the IE8 and re-install it. I have right now the IE6 (supposelly when I uninstalled the IE8 it backs me to the last version I had before installing the IE8).
Here is the conclusion: IE8 is running the installation and the first task is "downloading the updates to Windows Explorer 8". It is downloading for more than 48 hours !!!! and still downloading. In a first moment I though there was some problem and then I did re-start it but it follows the same.
I can browse any website using Firefox and/or Chrome. Can it be a Spybot problem?
I appreciate for your help with this. Thanks.
