    This may be a dumb question, but how do I "pm" you? Also, I am having problems getting in to this site. And since I last worked on my computer, I can't access hotmail or msn messenger. Are they connected?

    Thanks,
    Patjohn

    HJThis,

    A couple questions on your instructions. Step 7: Stop and Disable the rogue service:

    You named: Workstation NetLogon Service
    I found: Workstation
    Question: Is that the same thing? I don't want to disable something that is needed.

    You named: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper
    I found: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) - I didn't do anything to this one
    Remote Procedure Call (RPC) locator - it was stopped and I disabled it

    You named: Remote Access Service
    I found: Remote Access Auto Connection
    and Remote Access Connection Manager
    Question: Should I do anything to either of those?

    I did find and stop and disable Network Security Service.

    Thanks for your help. I won't proceed until I hear from you.

    HJThis,

    Hooray! I finally do not get about:blank on my home page! I ran all of the scans as directed and reset my home page, and it comes up when I open a browser window.

    I do have another problem, however. If you can give any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated! I have great faith that you can. I have hotmail set as my homepage. After signing in to it, I get the message "The Page Cannot Be Displayed". I know that I am connected to the internet, so that is not the problem. Any suggestions?

    Also, when trying to sign in to MSN Messenger, I get the following message:
    "Sorry, we were unable to sign you in to the MSN Messenger at this time. Please try again later. 80072efd". Again, anything you can suggest that would help, I sincerely appreciate.

    Thanks again for helping me to resolve the about:blank problem. I am very grateful for the time you spent helping with that.

    Patjohn
