Hi. I've posted on boards before, asking about this
question. I'm told that Microsoft knows about it, but
isn't doing anything about it. I was wondering if anyone
had an answer. The problem is that when I download the
service pack SP1 and install it, the computer slows way
down. Looking in the system resources yields the fact that
the Page File system is going insane, taking up literally
one hundred percent of my computer's resources. I have to
uninstall the update to help at all. However, there are a
few things in the update that I'd like to get still. Is it
possible to download them separately? Further, I have a
problem with homepage switching. The computer switches my
homepage to "Find xxx-online.net", where xxx stands for
what we all know and disagree with. Does anyone have a way
to fix this, offhand? Thank you for your help. In my
email, just remove the nospam and you'll be fine.
 
I believe you are affected with some form of malware. Try Spy-Bot or AdAware
to do a through scan.
