this only happens when we switch users :: a box pops up


mediaAcck.exe ( and when you click ok this one pops up ) mediaaccess.exe

but they both say this in them ...
the application failed to initalize properly ( 0xc000042 ) Clikc on Ok to terminate the application .

when you click on OK the boxes just pop up back and forth and you cant do anything else so you have to hold the power button to restart the computer ..

If the people in the malware forum can't help you and the Symantec people can't help you then you may need to take your computer to someone who knows how to remove the problems.

the only real way to stop malware is to never connect to the internet
