That would lead me to believe your webserver is giving you the problems.

I don't have much knowledge about that.
Can you try shutting it down for a while to test the effect?

It can be... It feels indeed when I shut down the browser windows it works faster. hey Pieter, I really don´t want to bother you anymore, when you have helped me so much already anyway... I really aprecciate what you have done!.. (And I have to stop drinking this cider as I have written this talk almost an hour ago & didn´t notice that I hadn´t posted this to you... DUH!!!)

It's really no bother. I just don't know very much about server-software.

Cool... Well anyway I can have my dear & beautiful Squidward Tentacles wallpaper back to track! Thanks to Pieter.
Well... What do you think we could do as for the mistakes messages then? Also I forgot to tell you that also from ´windows come this message saying that some Active-X component is missing... What should we do?

[Metallica]

I will have to have exact error messages (full text) and I might be able to help you with the ActiveX error

What I believe to be wscript errors are in the webserver software since most of your scripts are in the c:\Inetpub\AdminScripts folder

I have Googled for a solution to replace them but I came up empty-handed
I could even have drawn the wrong conclusion.
Like I said, I hardly know anything about that stuff. So much to learn, so little time.

[Diana Moura]

Right.... Hey let´s do this then, I´ll get back to you tomorrow morning as I don´t think I would be acting clever if I continue to post here tonight. And the most important, as this internet server supplies almost the whole building here where I live, I suspect that in the morning the traffic will be faster, let´s see anyway. I´ll make another try in the morning and will also take notes from the error messages as you asked... Is that OK?

[Metallica]

OK with me.

~I hear my cushion calling as well~

Morning! You know what, today nothing really showed up, apart from the Active-X talk. The message that shows up is more or less the following "Your current security settings are blocking the performance of the Active-X components. For this resason the page may not work properly. " This happened for instance when I tried to play some radio station straight from their site... What do you think? As for the speed of the computer, it has sure improved since you started to help, but it still feels that it´s not that fast as it used to be....

[Metallica]

The method described here:
http://support.micro...kb;en-us;836942
works for any site.

Just add the URL for that radiostation to the entries:
http://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://*.windowsupdate.com

Only do this for sites you really trust.

Regards,

[Diana Moura]

Cheers!! It worked.

[Metallica]

Download this file:
http://www.bleepingc...g/smitfraud.reg
and doubleclick it. Confirm you want to merge it with the registry.

It's an improved version of what we had to remove the keys Smitfraud adds.
Maybe it will gain a bit more speed.

Regards,

[Diana Moura]

I did it. So all what I had to do was to confirm the registry? Apart from that I didn´t really see any window showing up. Is it how it´s suppose to work? Anyway, thanks a lot for your help Pieter... I am already happy about the results...

[Metallica]

Yep. That's all it's supposed to do.

I'll keep this thread open for a while longer in case anything turns up.

So all you need to do is reply to this thread and I'll get notified.

Regards,

[Diana Moura]

Morning Pieter! So here I am again... Sorry for annoying you again but now the net won´t work. Remember when I said to you that I was having some funny problems with starting the net last week, well now it just won´t work, I mean the pages won´t load for some reason I don´t know. all I do know is that yesterday after I run Spybot and coulnd erase that BACKWEB LITE stuff I got a notification when restarting my computer (in my firewall software, zonealarm, saying that a new connection was available for the computer, and without me doing anything this "new connection" is now working as defaut. It may be that is the same one, but I am not sure. Well here´s the IP from this new network : 169. 254´.0.0/255.255.0.0 and the other one is 62.237.72.128/255.255.0.0
and here´s my fresh log

Looks like somehow a WLAN was implemented on your computer.

inetnum: 62.237.72.0 - 62.237.79.255
netname: WLANNET
descr: WLANnet Finland Oy
descr: Rautatienkatu 15 C, 33100 Tampere

If that is not supposed to be there, fix this line in HijackThis
