Has anyone used microsoft OneLive.com? It has a free service to scan your pc
for virus and/or correct corrupted registry files.

I"ve been having problem doing system restore. My pc might be virus
infected already. Currently, I don't have virus scan installed.

I done everything as suggested by the generous posters here. From taking
ownership of all the files and folders of the corrupted administrator profile
and then copying it to another administrator profile. All this done on safe
mode.

I still can't log in on normal mode, it always log me in in the system
default profile, for the mean time its' building up enormous temp user
folders in the system.

Kindly enlighten me on this onelive.care.

Thanks ,
Bea

Re: onelive.com

Are you referring to Windows Live OneCare Safety scans (onecare.live.com)?
I'd recommend running the Protection scan ONLY!

Why don't you have an anti-virus application installed? How long have you
been running without an anti-virus application?

Is the Windows Firewall enabled?

Is Automatic Updates enabled and is your machine fully patched at Windows
Update?

What System Restore problems are you having?

Re: onelive.com

microsofts one care
has two versions.

they have the full install
free for a trial period

http://onecare.live.com/standard/en-us/purchase/trial.htm?sc_cid=mscom_hp

and they also have a free one
online scanner version:

http://onecare.live.com/site/en-US/article/registry_cleaner_why.htm


however, though the above
is safe to run, there can
be other causes attributing
to the issue you are experiencing.

for example, faulty hardware
can cause the o.s. to be
unstable and mis interpreted
as an infection.

further, the above programs
don't really help with configuring
your system, that is if the o.s.
has been reconfigured either
intentionally or inadverdently.

perhaps, what you might be
looking for is the method to
repair your operating system.

a repair installation uses your
windows xp setup cd and
analyzes your o.s. on the hd.

then if there are any missing
or corrupted system files, then
the repair process will replace
them with genuine ones from
the cd.
