CherasWong Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Try to reinstall? Or try use >Glary Utilities< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartyjohnson Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 It depends on what you want to try. A reinstall of windows should certainly fix the problem. I just did the Vista downgrade back to XP and I spent hours getting all my drivers/programs back up. It was a pain. It may be more productive for you to try adaware and/or spybot first. If that doesn't fix it it could be something else, or still adware if it isn't in a database of known software. These type of things are a pain.
