I got zapped by spyaxe this morning and then go the uninstallers, however everytime I use internet explorer this window titled windows installer starts up. Then it says downloading and configuring Ofiice XP and Froont page. None of the Microsoft products work, they keep telling me "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resorce that is unavailable" then theres a small box underneath asking me to click ok and enter an alternate path to PROPLUS.MSI… What the hell does this mean? Here is my log, I don't understand any of this weird stuff.
