    That is really not good. Task Manager should never shut down on its own. You may very well be looking at a reinstall of the OS.

    Just do it. You're better off backing up your data, repartitioning and reformatting the disk.

    MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BOOT DISKS FOR YOUR OS!

    It may run slow but is it at least blocking the pop ups now? :)

    I thought you didn't have to have a boot disk for XP?

    What's the best way to back up the data on the hard drive if I must do a reformat and what's the best way to partition a drive? I already asked a bunch of partition questions in a previous thread but don't remember which, does anybody else know so I don't have to repeat myself?

    Actually, it's not because the blocker that was bought for the computer was uninstalled.

    andymoon explained it already.....
    I mentioned it cause you obviously are looking for all options other than to have to reload...At least give it a shot...it couldnt hurt.

    if it wont work in Safe Mode...then you must reload and reinstall.
