host problem?
i am a new guy to this so please be patient with me.
i appear to have a problen when i go onto the net.
i have a broadband connection with my local cable provider telewest. when i go to use the net my homepage has been taken over by looncomics i then go to default and get my homepage back - so far so good. However when i have finished on the net and close down my computer i get a message telling me that i have to shut down a program before it can shut down - i click okay but nothing happens and the computer will not shut down?
I see a little box telling me that the programme running is svchost and it is in my system file. when i try to delete it i get a message that it cannot be deleted as windows iis using the programme. this has happened for 2 weeks now. I am not used to using dos and am not the best at computers - i just use them.
can anyone out there please give me guidance.
