So everythings installed, everything's working dandy. My first home built system, and it's about 20x more stable than anything I have ever purchased from an OEM. I'm happy.
THEN, I boot up today, and ICQ plainly won't run. At all. Period. Net detect, the actual shortcut to the proggy, not even the uninstaller. I try and remove it through the add/remove proggies under Control Panel- nothing. No progress. I have Norton Systemworks + firewall- that again is glitchy. The anti-virus never fully completes itself, and none of the utilities will run independently. A couple of other programs are proving unable to run- Catchup from CNET, etc.
I'm worried I have a virus. That's the only logical conclusion I can come to in this situation. Btw, the copy of XP is a corporate copy, and as I say, everything was working a-ok until today. Can anyone help me out?
