for some reason i have some sorta infection of my PC that McAfee cant fix, what it does is make Skype, TS and Spybot SAD unable to open, if i click on them then it comes up with the "programe has encountered an error" warning.

McAfee has been trying to get rid of "juan-search" for a while and i dunno if that is causing it, what programes might get rid of it for me??

I got a free one. Big name ones just mess up your computer as they are so overprotective.

Checks all the processes that are running on your computer.
(And scans them to give you detailed information on what each processes does.)

Hmm since I have a wierd problem I thought I would post it here too.

Anyone know how to fix this?  When I am on Xfire there are some contacts that I can open normally, and then other contacts I see the window on the hot bar, but the only way I can see them is to right click on it and maximize it.  Oh and I cant resize it smaller once its open its either open or closed.  So now I have a huge xfire window for this contact, and then smaller ones for others.  I  cant figure it out.

if u have a portable hard drive u could get all of the files off the pc, format and then reinstall windows with an anti virus soft like AVG i think its one of the best and its freehttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/downloads-products/us/frt/0?prd=aff

Or, before you format, try uninstalling xFire then reinstalling it.

Post your problem on one of those forums where you can post hijack logs, there's always some experts willing to help you there Smiley.

Did you try reinstalling TS yet?

NOD32 is by far the best anti-virus to have come out.
