an old computer of mine with windows ME had a virus w95.space to be exact and i got rid of it but ever since that system was infected i keep on getting a windows error, it says "windows socket error: (10048), on API 'bind' "
has anybody else run into this problem??... i would just format but then i don't want to lose driver info because it is an older system and im not sure if i have that stuff...
thanks for any help

Nice people are kool...Mean people just suck :lol:

W95.Spaces is a dangerous Windows 9x virus. On June 1 of every year, the virus manipulates the Master Boot Record (MBR) of an AT hard disk by using port commands. The virus modifies the MBR data area so that the first partition will point to itself. This prevents the system from booting if running certain MS-DOS versions that contain a bug and are unable to boot the system correctly.
