Yes, programs work. Error was during use of l2mfix I think. (An installable virtual Device Driver Failed DLL initialization). Nothing to worry about trying to fix.

l2mfix

You can remove that program.

Can't remember if we've done this or not.

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing. :D
I will remove 12mfix. Completed process to hide files and downloaded software. All seems to be ok. THANK YOU very much for your help and time taken out of your day/night to work on this computer.
