An unusual one......Every now and then while surfing i get the Windows file protection alert pop up.Saying windows files have been replaced by new ones do you want to replace,etc,etc.I recall when i first put this machine online a command prompt box apppeared on its own accord and then disappeared?It still seems too run fine but thought i would post,Cheers,Antz

Click start then run, type sfc /scannow then press enter to replace the system files, you need the XP CD.

System File Check will show an on screen blue progress bar, reboot when the bar goes
