HELP!!!!!
I did everything that was posted, and now windows will not
start, I got rid of the parasites, the computer worked for
a few days, then I went to log on to download spyware, and
it would start as far as the wallpaper, but windows will
not start, I have tried reinstalling windows and still it
will not start, I don't want to uninstall and reinstall
unless absolutely necessary, because I don't wan't to lose
files.
Any Ideas??????
