If it is working, there should be an update for IE8 on XP (I got the notification this morning), presumably XP Media Centre version would still have IE8 (or earlier) and that would need updating.

Could you run a fresh FSS scan please

 run farbar service scanner



Tick "All" options.
Press "Scan".
It will create a log (FSS.txt) in the same directory the tool is run.

Please copy and paste the log to your reply.

Certainly  :).

I attach the report. I did notice it was exceptionally quick - it did it in about 5 seconds so I don't know if that in itself is a problem.
