Windows XP Search button does not work

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

The search box comes up on the left side as it should but the box is empty
and all you see is the dog. What happened to the interface. This occurred
after having a virus cleaned from the computer. Also lost a sku011.cab file
which has been restored but has not corrected this problem only the Excel
problem.
