I was surfing the web last night on my home computer and I ran across this message:

"Windows File Protection

Files that are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions. To maintain systems stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files. Insert your Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD now."

I have a Windows XP Upgrade disc (came with the computer), but it states that the disc is not correct. Am I going to have to re-run the Windows XP Upgrade disc to remove this issue?

I've run Norton Anti-Virus and an anti-spyware program, but they did not find anything amiss.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help,
Daniel

UPDATE: IE 7.0 is extremely slow. It takes 5 or so minutes to load a page. Once the page is loaded, IE works normally until you open another instance or another tab. Firefox works like a champ, though.
