Ehh, Sorry about that Sticks...

The best thing I can think of is to get a friend you trust that is gifted in computers and has XP. Try using the "remote assistance" where a friend can link to your computer and try to debug it, that's the only thing I can think of unless you completely do a sys. restore where your reformat your hard drive.

Something tells me that MSN did not give this to you, but a dormant Trojan may be messing with your comp?

Oh, and what kind of Anti-Virus are you running?
