If you are using Windows XP or ME, restore back to a few days when your computer worked properly. ---

Icky. 1. Don’t use Kazaa. 2. Listen to them, get Norton. 3. Good idea to not restart, that often is the downfall’s beginning. 4. Just start backing up stuff if you can, see if you can get into the windows MS-DOS. 5. Risky, but restart and go into Safe Mode. 6. Risky, restart, go into DOS mode and move stuff to safe locations. =) Good Luck ---

You can start Windows XP into safe mode with command prompt only then copy stuff via dos, but copy it to what is the question…a floppy? Rewrite access isnt supported at the prompt. Press F8 like the man said, and either restore or go into safe mode and run the antivirus. also if you boot normally, you might want to try pressing ctrl.alt.delete to get the task manager… once there go to the “processes” tab…find explorer.exe and end its task…once it is ended go to “File” then “New Task (Run)” and type in “explorer.exe” this resets your file explorer…see what you can do from there, and also try the restore and antivirus functions… let us know … yo ---

THERE IS NO MORE DOS. Dos was an operating system. It is DEAD!!! What you see is command prompt, all it is is the command line instead of loading the shell.
