I suggest you uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP
Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."
Click "Add or Remove Programs."
Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove."
I deleted msie v7. I use firefox anyway. the problem with scrolling is definately improved although still not smooth. I can live with it the way it is now.
any ideas on how I can get my display to fill the monitor screen again? I am losing close to 2" because of the "black framing" I described in my earlier post.
the screen used to be fully utilized and the monitor came with the system, so I think the correct card and all that is there. nothing changed on that account unless the malware or whatever changed settings which I can't find. I can't drag it, the mouse stops at the edge of the black abyss.
the slow scroll is back, along with the wave of the scrolling when I use the scroll bar. my computer obviously is usable, but that certainly makes things less pleasant.
all this has only changed in the past week and I haven't downloaded anything. I did unfortunately click on a thing that said that I needed to update my 'viewer' when I was looking at a profile on myspace. I am kicking myself in the ass for that. I didn't download antything there, just clicked on the update viewer button, and that's when things went wrong. Never again. and no I couldn't even tell you what viewer it said I needed to update.
the slow scroll thing happens on word, excel, firefox, any program whether I am using a browser or just my pc. really a drag.
* Download Combofix to your desktop.
Doubleclick combo.exe
Follow the prompts.
Don't click on the window while the fix is running, because that will cause your system to hang.
When finished, it should produce a log, combofix.txt.
Post this log in your next reply together with a new hijackthislog.
Please use the [external image: Posted Image] Button below to reply.
When I try to run the combofix I get a "windows - no disc" popup that says there is no disc in the drive. Please insert a disc into the drive
what are your thoughts on that? do I need to run that in safe mode or something?

Put it in its own folder. You may want to keep this program. It is an excellent free, registry editor.
Copy and paste the follow text into the address bar, then hit 'Go': HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\explorer\run
In the pane on the right are the values associated with that key.
We want to remove this one -> "none"="C:\\Program Files\\Video ActiveX Object\\pmsngr.exe"
Right click on it, and select delete.
If you get a confirmation question, respond OK then close out the program.
Leave the Napster one's if you use it.

did all you suggested. there were no files/folders C/napster or video activX either in the add/remove or when doing an explore. after following the instructions the recycle bin was empty-nothing to delete there. my computer seems to be actiing the same. still the slow scroll and wavey scroll when using the scroll bar. as far as the processing speed, it seems to be back to normal now.
I appreciate your help.
here's the latest log.

not to sound stupid, but what would I do with the backup registry in the future? I really have no idea what that is for. do ERUNT and the registrar registry program serve different functions?
Thanks. I did all that you suggested. It seems to be running better. I still have scrolling issues, but they seem not as bad. I still have the black frame around my usable screen.
I can deal with how my computer is operating now. thanks for your help.
