Sunflower Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 I found this reading the newsletter sent out by Sunbelt Software and thought it to be obscure enough, but possibly relevant when you least wish it to be: "If you use Ad-Aware by Lavasoft and it removes the spyware program wsaupdate.exe, you may not be able to log onto your XP computer because the spyware also makes a change to the registry that is not fixed by removing it. You can use the Recovery Console to fix the problem." http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892893/en-us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted October 31, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 That's better. Now if I type microsoft it works, but .microsoft it doesn't. And how about 'Microsoft'. Could post by the way Sunflower, that is quite a gotcha there isn't it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunflower Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 I find the number of "gotchas" with computers, at least when you're operating at my level of understanding, to be overwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
