◙ Safe Mode ◙

If none of these programs work, your next thing to do is to log in while in Safe Mode. You will have to scan for viruses and spyware in Safe Mode. To do Safe Mode in Windows XP, please follow these steps:

→ Save all your files
→ Turn off your computer
→ Locate in your keyboard F8
→ Turn on your computer and press F8 until you see a black screen with some words on it
→ From the options given, choose Safe Mode
→ You will see all these drivers coming up, wait a few seconds
→ Then you will log in using an administrator account
→ Now you will be logged in and everything will be the same except you will see Safe Mode at every corner of your screen and most of your system drivers will be turned off
→ Please load your anti-virus and spyware programs and start scaning your system

☺While the computer is in safe mode, it will have reduced functionality, but it is easier to isolate problems because many non-core components are disabled.:)
