hi everyone..sorry for my spelling or grammar.well,for sometime now my laptop poped a message regarding the ip protocol(saying a serious problem has occured..),then it was infected with a trojan virus and now(after not being able to clear the virus),windows enter but freeze after trying to open any program or start a prossese.i opened it thru safe mode and run antivirus programs but nothing was shown.i read somewhere that this ip problem is connected with drivers (intel pro/wireless 3945abg) and their updates..what is the problem?
thanx in advance

honestally, to be safe, wipe your harddrive and do a clean install, you can never be to safe

I don't know exactly what you're dealing with, but before wiping the HDD and re-installing, I would try (in Safe Mode if need be) installing updated wireless drivers. What virus program did you use? AVG Free works well. Also you might try clearing your IP stack with this handy little tool. It worked for me once when my wireless kept crashing. As a last-ditch effort, I would have to agree that wiping your HDD and re-installing would be best. However, first make SURE you have backup drivers and all your documents backed up. God bless.

THANX.i used f-secure,antivir and nod32,and none could clean it up.i changed the options in some programs to not automatically start with start up and this made the pc able to stay alive and not stuck.i tried the program(thanx) and it seems better.now,about the drivers,the thing is i dont really now how to update(i dont have the windows cd).

Save your self some headachs and backup your data, then wipe the HD and do a clean install of XP. Then make sure you have your AV up todate before importing your data.

Then you select the Drivers tab, and click Update Driver. Note: you will not be able to download a driver update if you are not connected to the Internet (which you might not be if you are having troubles with your wireless)
I hope it works out.
