If there are any MVP's, I'd appreciate the help, I've exhausted all googling
efforts.
In a quest to kill some nasty trojans and worms that the popular 4
virus/spyware companys couldn't do, I was forced to run some critical
software in safemode. In the settings, I forgot to untick one box, in the
removal proccess, the software deleted some temp OS files (that I saw
scorlling by but stopped the software) , it even deleted the MS factory
chrome/green themes bars (display properties/appearence-themes).
So heres my problem. Although I'm still online and the rest of the OS (XP
SP1) (with Comcast) 6mb connection, my speeds where immidiatly reduced when
I rebooted out of safe mode. Normal sites that I d/l from at 450kb/s I'm now
reduced to 125kb/s or so.
I know its hard to ID what the problem could be but based on the above, can
anyone reccomend some things to look for? Still have connectivity but speed
has definitly been reduced from these temp files that were ID and deleted by
that software in safemode.
Thank you very much. Comcast obviously wont touch this with a 10' pole, any
help would be appreciated.
