This morning my desktop computer was working fine,but now when i try to access IE (yes I still use it! ) I get a error window telling me that it can't open. I have run a spyware check,and antivirus,and it still isn't working. Anyone else got any ideas?

I can't even run system restore.

Operating System? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378

What type of anti-virus and malware software did you use to scan your computer?

I am using Windows XP,and I used Norton,and Super Anti Spyware. I can't access anything,it won't let me go online,I can't open any files,or run system restore. Also when I was running the scans,I had all these porn sites popping up.

cause of your pc problems.

Yikes !! It appears you system is/was riddled with malware/virus.

Use this to see if you can catch anymore malware/virus, needless to say you'll have to download this to a flash-drive via another computer and run.
