Hi guys,

My friend cant seem to access his internet explorer and wanted me to post this, in hopes that someone on here might what the problem is. Thanks.
 
Tell him to plug in his computer.

Or, the "on" button is the red one in the center of the big square heavy thing... right next to the button that makes the cup holder pop out.

Or, tell him to hit the "Any Key"... that should keep him busy for a while so you can get some real work done.
 
I was able to get on somehow now, but most of the times I log on I get errors If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. MiffunMinshur go F%&(* yourself

P.S.S. Sorry I did not put in a clever comeback, but I figured if you could reuse old jokes I did not nead to waste my time thinking of something original.
 
When I hit the explore button I get a rectangular box saying

You have performed an illigal operation and explore will shut down.

P.S. Any help is appreciated, as without terb for 2 days I resorted to reading the back of eye magazines in the subway.

But you may want to wait for someone who actually knows wtf they are talking about to give you advice. I'm more interested in how great your appreciation might be.


...it's no wonder you have your own fan club poolie...:p


sorry i can't be of any help to ya 2sexxxy, half the time i bearly know how to turn on a computer...thank god for the secretary...
 
2sexxxy, it sounds like you are a victim of that virus/worm that was going around about a week - ten days ago. It's name escapes me, as I did not succumb. I think it's the Blaster. Try running a virus scan, or find out how other people defeated this one. That illegal operation dialogue box within 30 minutes of startup isa manifestation of that virus/worm.
 
Download Opera. http://www.opera.com.

It's much faster, smaller, customizable and blocks pop-ups from those sites with naked women on them. It only opens pop-ups that you request to be opened (i.e pictures of naked women).
 
this little program will come in handy if you download opera

(it will unlock the trial version without registering it)

enjoy
 
It does sound like the msblaster worm, although it would usually start a re-boot cycle that would get shorter and shorter between re-boots.

Do a search on McAfee's website (with another computer of course) and download the stinger that will get rid of that virus.
 
The msblast.exe virus gives a different error message. ( something to the effect of : NT authority/ system is restarting windoze coz RPC was terminated unexpectedly )

Upon further consideration, and the fact you are getting an "illegal operation" error, I'd say you need to free up some memory. Delete some of that gay porn you never watch anyway, and disable any running tasks in the background. A general cleanup of temp internet files and any unused programs followed by a good scan and defrag should do the trick.
