Possible Malware Infection Affecting various Windows XP Utilities [Clo

OK, what about the System File Check?

Are you still there?

Can this thread be put on hold as I am having difficulty procurring system disk seeing as support for Windows XP stopped on March 6th according to my sources.

That´s right but don´t you have someone nearby who may borrow you one?

Would this have to be a Windows XP Professional or merely a Windows XP.  Is there an appreciable difference between the two?

It has to be a Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3

OK

Are you still with me?

I thought I had repied to you before this but will let you know now.  March 13th there was a blizzard snowstorm here  which made it impossible to go and get a system disc.  During the storm I had a chimney fire which resulted in a house fire and i thereby lost use of my pc.  However this morning approximately 4 hours ago i was able to get back on-line.  I have the disc and am awaiting further instructions and I appologize for this delay.  Going back where we left off I believe you wanted me to do the "scannow".  and I am prepared to do it now.

System File Checker scan/now reads nothing:

I hope you´re doing well after all that stress! o.O

Are you still facing the issues you described when starting the topice here?

I sent a reply to you a few days ago, but for some reason it never registered on here.  However, the status of my pc remains the same with one additional problem that certain programs will not download and install  properly.
