hi there,

my explorer won't start anymore when i start my computer. i have to open the taskmanager to start the explorer from there. thank god at least that works!!! anyway, my little brother confessed the other day that he surfed the net and ended on certain sex sites! thank you very much!! now i have that trouble of not being able to erase those stupid cookies and i have popups all the time asking me to install harddrive cleaners, commercials and sex popups, of course. i'm not speaking to him anymore
i ran an active panda scan, cause i thought there was a virus on my hard drive but no. just those cookies.
a week ago, i uninstalled sp2 (properly) but eversince that week i can't start my computer without shaking: is it going to crash again? cause it does that just like that lately.

i guess it's faulty windows rather than a virus or something. if you would like a hijackthis scan, tell me. i got one ready to post and for you to check.

anyway, how can i fix this mess???????

thanks for all of your help!
