Problems I encountered but seemed to have resolved include:
- Almost consistent crashing of IE (although I was able to download install LavaSoft Ad-Ware virus scanner that removed a bunch of cookies and seems to have resolved this particular issue)
- Search Sites would show links to either sales oriented or virus scan sites instead of topics I searched for. Again, deletion of cookies seems to have resolved this)
Problems I cannot seem to eliminate:
- When I click on a Search Engine link... it redirects to some other site. Browser back button usually returns me to the site I was trying to link to
- Unable to open CMD (nothing happens)
- Unable to open Regedit (again nothing happens)
- Unable to connect to some sites altogether. For example if I type in to connect to http://www.mcaffee.com the browser icon spins as if trying to connect but never brings up the site or any error message
- I tried downloading/installing AVG but it could never successfully update to the site.
Would appreciate any insight.
