As soon as I start my Internet Explorer, a winfixer window pops up asking me to install the software. IE crashes within 2 minutes of this pop-up. I’ve used Ad-aware and MS Antispyware, but they couldn’t help me. Can you?

Running a Registry cleaner?

Hi my desktop computer has just popped up the windows blue screen error. I have tried restarting the computer numerous times to no avail. I have been told to run a registry cleaner to help fix this problem. How do i run a registry cleaner on a computer that has the blue screen error that never goes away? We even tried booting from the windows xp disk but that didn’t work at all, the disk did not even load up.

Just uninstalled and deleted trial and other unwanted softwares from new Windows Vista laptop, and would like to clean up, organize and optimize the registry.

Please advise.

Thank you for your help.

Windows failed to start . A recent hardware or software chagne might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. insert Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose you language and click next.
3. Click repair your computer

Other options
Safe mode
safe mode with networking
safe mode with command prompt
Last known good configuration
Start windows normally.

I have done the first option and it just says if the errors were fixed correctly then windows should start normally.
All the other options just load and super fast blue screen flashed and then it reloads everything.
It is a dell inspiron 6400
I am running windows vista home premium 32bit

When I first turn on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv2000), it loads and when it is about to go to the desktop it stays blank for like a minute, then it resumes. Anyone know how to fix this?
