Running XP-Pro.
Boot up computer this morning, playlist is gone in Winamp. Readd it, no problem. Its working fine. Run a spysearch just in case... 11. I swear, then fry the ware.

Open firefox...
fail.
FireFox stalls on opening.
I reboot
Stalls again
Virus scan
Stalls again
reinstall firefox
Stalls again
Go into IE and download Avant so i have something with some form of functionality
Try firefox fleetingly as i dont really like avant
Stalls again

AIM gives me Illegal Operation... every time i quit...
Also the taskbar seems to stall a bit whenever i do random things with the system tray (like closing a messenger, avant, whatever)

Any idea whats going on?

So can we expect a thread on "How do I dispose a body so it's never found?" biggrin.gif

Sounds like it's time to create a restricted login for your brother that stops him from installing programs
