Vile_DR Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Well to begin it sounds like you have more problems that just the pop-ups and spyware on your machine obvisously. There are some tools i am going to point you to, and then members on this board can probably help you out a little bit more with your situation. You said you can't access the Admin account on the PC. Do you use the User Welcome Screen and click a Picture (icon) to log into Windows? If so, you can access the administrator account at this screen by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL, giving it a few moments to respond...anywhere up to a minute, in my experience. Have the administrator password handy, if you set one up, or if you didn't, you should see a typical logon screen where the user name is either blank or has "administrator" typed for you (without the quotes). In the password blank, of course, type the password. That should work...Best Techie Anti-Spyware ToolsAnti_Virus Firewall and I-spyad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
