Foe XP: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\……


B. There will be no conflict between any of these programs

C.

I have a question for you. You said that the three scanners say that nothing is there, but I remember that they did say that my computer had some infections, viruses, suspicious objects, etc. Were these things not threats, or have they been resolved in some way?


If they were dangerous items, I would not have left them on your machine. If you followed all of my instructions, all dangerous files are no longer present. You may have an odd qharantine from an old program hanging around but if you find one, delete it.
Since this issue appears to be resolved … this Topic has been closed. Glad we could be of assistance.
