Another computer problem

Postby Susie Hamilton » May 28th, 2008, 3:20 pm

I am having computer problems again. My web page on AOL was getting hijacked. I have been able to stop that. I have ran 2 anti virus programs and cannot find it. One program I have, Kaspersky has settings that I have been tweeking. It asks for permission for dif programs. So far I have narrowed it down to these problems. Iexplore.exe which I deleted. The others are

Windows
system32\svchost.exe PID 1232

and
\Driver\Ps2 which is a keylogger

and System 32\drivers\Ps2.sys

Any ideas from the Geek squad? I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
To God be the Glory.

I offer a complete fix. Simply take your stimulus check with you and grab a Macbook or iMac. You will not be disappointed.

Apple 20" iMac - $1,069.00

The closeout Macbooks are about the same price.
Sorry if this doesn't address your immediate situation.

Do you really like the Mac that much better? I have been looking at them and they are nice, was it hard to get used to the different windows setup?

I saw some really nice ones at bestbuy in va beach it was a couple grand and when i went to the best buy here they did not have one, I was shocked....

Macs are that much better. I'm still using a 400mhz iMac and it does everything I need. In 23 years of using Macs I have dealt with a virus. Mac's OS is much more intuitive than windows, things work the way you think they should rather than going around the world to do a simple task (who's idea was it to put the "shut down" command under the "start" menu on windows????) Take a trip to an Apple store and check it out, you'll love it.

Since early 90's I've used them without apologies. I own 8+ macs under my studio roof here. Even the oldest mac I have (in the storage closet) will start up fine and work fine. My kids each have their own imac just like Macgulley's.

If you want to forget the number to the local PC shop. Buy a mac. You might experience a slight learning curve.. but it will be liberating. Today you can even run XP on it if desired... but why?

Mac Zealot out.

Its faster and more bells and whistles that any of my PCs

I have been thru the wringer with my computer but it is finally fixed. I had to uninstall Kaspersky because it was giving me problems. I got to the point where I could not get online. I went to Office Max and was sitting on the floor looking at dif programs to try to fix this thing when a sales guy came by. After I told him what was going on he said he had just the program I needed. $99.99 later I walked out with a program called PC Restoration. He said it is rated #1 in Consumer Reports. They do it thru remote hookup. Last night I called them, they walked me thru getting hooked up to them in Safe Mode then I went to sleep. This morning when I woke up and got online, they had left me a message on the screen with the info I needed. It is now working like I just bought it. I would highly recommend this program.
