hi friends,
let me first explain you what is the whole situation.
1. My laptop got hacked with rb32. Somehow i got rid of that problem but
in process my "internet explorer" and "search for files and folders"
was not working.
2. some one told to run sfc/scannow command to check system files. and
doing so i came to know that some files were missing.
3. To get help in this topic i posted a thread in this forum about 2 to
3 weeks back.
4. As per the valuable suggestions from my expert exchange friends, i
followed the steps to "WINDOWS IN PLACE UPGRADE".
5. After succesfully completion of in place upgrade i executed sfc
command again and no missing files were found this time.
but my problem of internet explorer and search files and folders option
was still there.
I ordered new internet explorer 6 sp1 CD from microsoft.
I uninstalled damaged internet explorer 6 from the system. I also
removed it from add or remove window component. just to remove
completely from my desk top.
I take care of modifying registry key from 1 to 0 so that i can install
new explorer from new CD.
( becoz if you do not modify registry key then it gives out an error
saying "system already detected new version of explorer on system so
cannot continue installtion)
Even after all these steps when i start fresh installtion what happens
is very funny !!
System asks to accept the agreement which is normal in any installtion,
and then when it starts installing window components,
it merely completes 12 to 15% of installation in about 4 mins and
suddenly the progress bar reaches 100% in 2 seconds and gives out a
message "installation complete" "please re-start your computer"
After restarting the computer When i open explorer it doesn't work properly.
(note: I have referred all articles listed for this problem on
support.microsoft.com web site.)
why is this doing so ?? what may be the problem now ??
Can any one please guide me furthur ?
Kindly help.
