hello Cathy, i cant see anything in your log that might be causing problems, it looks good. >>*.hartkes.com,<< are you familiar with that web site?

Cathy

Post #3September 19, 2004, 2:02 PM UTC

Thanks for responding! [Really!]

Yes, I am familiar with Hartkes site.

My big problem is being unable to access Hotmail. It's happened before and was always a bug that was preventing the site from loading.

I did a scan and found a WurldMedia –MSCStat2.exe file and got rid of that. I also found a couple twaintec files and got rid of those.

I also ran CWshredder and got rid of some things.

This is the newest log, if you could take another look..just to be sure..I sure would be grateful.
