I have two user accounts in my computer. In one, I cannot print Eudora emails--"Internet Explorer script error", and also the "flashes" in my home page does not display properly. Howerver in the other user account, everything is fine. This problem occurred soon after i updated Yahoo.Verizon program. But even after I uninstalled Yahoo.Verizon (by add/remove program), the problem persists. Is it possible that the program was not removed completely? I am using Window XP SP-2, IE 7.0, Eudora 7.0. I found no error using Norton System Works, and Windows Defender. I also tried to set the IE internet options the same in both user accounts (except for the "Programs Manage Add Ons", in the good user account, there are 18 add-ons; in the bad user account, only 13 add-ons, and I set those 13 the same as in the good one).

Please help me. Kathy

I did not realized that "IE script error" (which happened in some useraccount but not in the other) was due to corrupted WinXP system files, which was repaired by Windows File Protection, by running "sfc /scannow" at the command line.

Thanks to the helpful suggestions I received from members of this Forum, especially MCSA and Bernardus, and ozrom1e, from Start->run-> I typed "sfc /scannow" (without using the Restoration CD), and in just 5 minutes, all my problems are solved. System Restore works, all my user accounts are good, Windows Update screen comes out nicely in all of them, I can upgrade to IE 7, the streaming images are displayed nicely, and I can print webpages and Eudora emails from any user accounts. It is simply great!!! I do not need to reformat my hard drive. I do not need to reinstall WinXP or any software programs on my CD. "sfc /scannow" works like magic, it repaired my corrupted Win XP system files in a flash!!!

PS. In order to avoid the use of Restoration CD for "sfc /scannow" repair, I followed the instruction on http://www.updatexp.com\scannow-sfc.html.
I navigated to the location in my registry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSFT\Windows\CurrentVersion\SetUp
and set SourcePath (in the right panel) to C:\, since I have the folder i386 in my C drive.
