Yes, still am.

When I first turn on my computer and click on Internet Explorer or click on a simple folder like My Documents the task bar would freeze. This usually happens randomly so I never know when to expect it. Sometimes the whole computer freezes though I'm still able to work with windows that is still on the restore down or maximized mode. It takes a long time to actually work again or it won't and I have to restart the whole computer.

There are times when I click on Internet Explorer and I suddenly get a message that the program isn't responding and asks me if I would like to send a report. After I get that, the window will still be open and blank. Then I get another message that says DrWatson Postmortem Debugger isn't responding and asks me if I'd like to send a report. As I get past that the program freezes. Though I've found a way for it all to fix, Ctrl+Alt+Delete. I go to task manger then click on Processes and find this name called drwtsn(sometime 32 will be beside it).exe and end the process. The task bar wipes itself clean and everything is back to normal.

This has happened more often now, and half the time I won't even be able to do anything on my computer.

This problem does not appear to be malware related. I would suggest that you consult one of our other forums for expert assistance in this matter. Inasmuch as it isn't just while online, I suggest that you talk to these people here:

I will leave your thread open in case they want to see what has transpired. Not much use me trying to guess what's wrong when they will KNOW what's wrong.


Good Luck
