I let my painter use my computer and he managed to get PSGuard installed on it. After running adaware, spybot, etc... i had to renamed the only file they could not fix because it was in use by the system, even on reboot in safemode. It was called oleext.dll, I renamed it to oleext.bku via safe mode dos. I didn't delete because it was in the windows\system folder and I wasn't sure if it was crucial. PSGuard, removed tabs in my display properties dialog box. I have those back now, and my system is completely free of spyware as far as I know.
However, when I select 32 bit color in my display properties it still displays the 16 bit color bar. My system displays 32 bit color, its just the display properties dialog box that is funky. Even after restart the color bar on the display properties dialog box still only shows the 16 bit color spectrum. I I've tried uninstalling my monitor, video card, and their drivers. But nothing seems to get 32 bit color bar working again. The only thing I haven't tried is physically removing the card when I uninstall it, and/or reinstalling direct x. I don't know that it would help any so I just thought I would ask here. I'm running win 98 se, and I have an Asus v8460 geforce 4 ti with the latest win 98 se drivers. It may be no big deal, but I thought I would ask. After looking at the HTJ file I realize maybe I'm not as clean as I hoped.
Thank you a bunch in advance for taking a look.
