I have windows xp, home. The problem seems to have started when I uninstalled AGV and reinstalled a newer version. My computer takes for ever to boot up (10-15min). I can?t run disk defragmenter or try to restore to an earlier restore point. It seems like weird things are taking place like email address disappearing. I all of a sudden have two DVD writers Show up Under My Computer. When I only actually have one. And none of my programs will acknowledge my DVD writer (windows medial player ECT.) I can play a disk on it but I can?t use it in conjunction with any program to burn, they all say I don?t have a DVD player/burner. I?ve tried to update the firm ware but it also does not recognize the DVD drive. I use Google chrome and explorer and when I try to use the search engine it redirects me to different types of search engines. And my computer seems real slow. I have two hard drives and neither is full, but I really can?t trust what my computer is telling me. Especially since the defragmenter and restorer don?t work. Sorry so long, but there was a lot to explain and I still fell like I may have left something out.

wait for better advice. changing to a different player's not going to help if you have a virus.I can't help with the virus part.

looks to be a spammer with the email addy thing going!
