After all teh redirects were removed, this computer started acting weirdly. I was trying to create a new folder, to move some files to an external drive. eah time Roxio Creator 9 opened the install window, and started to install. But this large program is already installed (was 2 years ago). When I cancelled out, then retried to create a folder (file, new, folder), then it worked.
I rebooted the computer, and tried to delete Roxio and it's updater, which got stuck and froze in the middle. After a reboot, i used c cleaner again and remove the Roxio Creator Suite 9 and it updater.
After rebooting, it seems to be working, but there is a lot of hard drive activity, even when I'm only using ms publisher, or using firefox.
I'm also noticing a new, flash to black then back to windows xp screen when my XP pro starts up. Is that normal? Never really noticed it before.
Any ideas? maybe the hard drive is getting too full? I think it's a 1 TB dive with 900 GB on it.
I deleted all your tools, but would appreciate any ideas. The second time I deleted Roxio using cCleaner, I first opener "Process viewer" and watch the msi at work and it took a long time... I think I might have not been patient the first time.
Any ideas?
