Hello, i have a laptop, just over 1.5 years old. i have had all sorts of problems with it. i recently formatted the hard drive and re-installed evreything from scratch. I have norton anti-virus, spybot, ad-aware, microsoft firewall, but i still seem to get stuff. my comp willnot let me download service patches (it takes a long time and everntually reacts to them).
I think i have a problem now with something called Unpak32.exe (or something like that). when i logged onto the internet after some point internet explorer would not open or do anyting and it refused to open the task manager. it is worse now, running very slow even if not connected to the internet. i just managed to turn it on today and i am running another virus scan butit is very slow and unresponsive to anything else. half way throiugh the virus scan, everything disappeared from my screen (start menu, desktop icons), so all i have running is the norton virus scan. a friend has service pack 2 on CD but i am afraid it will mess it up even more. Also, in my task manager, i have a lot of random exe stuff running under user or local service/network service. I would appreciate any help i could get.
thanks a million!!!!!
