Hi, about a week ago I had restarted my computer and when I logged on, I had an error message saying
 Now I can't open Windows Sidebar, Windows Media Player, Apple Software Update and some other of my applications. I do not have a previous restore point nor a Windows disc. I use Kaspersky Internet Security 7. No threats have been detected. Any further assistance would be excellent.

Could you pull up an error # or the like from the error log?

There is nothing, the pictures I posted are the only things that pop up. I open the application, and the first one says, then it goes to the next screen posted below.

Open control panel, then go to your administrative tools. Then open "Event Viewer" and take a glance through the logs to find the specific error for more info.

Okay you might have malware, however my guess is that it's a system resource problem. I sugguest you run a MemTest.

I'm scanning with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, right now.
----------- Do you have a better malware search program? This post has been edited by ForeColor: May 4 2008, 09:02 PM |
