Yesterday morning my wife turned on XP to play Spider and a window came across screen about settings.
The screen setup looked like screen way back with no email nor isp.
I had computer shop do repair,they said spy tracking virus placed settings in temporary file,weird.
The fix is complete.Thought I would pass info along,had not heard of this virus,AVG and other spyware did not catch it.I did see AVG telling me to send 10 errors to AVG before it went down after exiting window.
While many still use Windows XP, there are no more updates to the OS. You should probably stop using it very soon, because there will be no more patches.
I do have a windows 7,not that I like it but like you said some places will not support XP.I will be forced to replace it.
As part of my trouble I could not setup peoplepc email.
I picked up my xp this morning,second time after crash,computer tech said protochol for outlook,outdated and not supported by email provider,he did something and now works,something about old windows 6??
Computer tech said older version of window 6.
In my XP were two for email,he used one which says outlook express which had never been used???
