I am having the same problem with my Dad's Gateway
computer and XP. No one seems to know how to fix or why
it is happening. My Gateway computer had no problems
with the fix. If anyone figures it out I would
definately appreciate hearing about it. Please someone
pass the information along.
 
Yes, I have a copy of the patch and i have the Symantec
Worm removal tool. I have used it on my Computer (also a
Gateway) and had no problems taking care of it. I also
used it on my 6 networked computers at my job and it had
no problems. When I attempted to use it on my fathers
Gateway computer the error message occured. Noone seems
to know what is up with it. If you find anything definte
out please let me know. I will do the same. Thanks for
your help.
