How to repair digital photos previously recovered.?

I recovered a bunch of pictures from a flash drive using the software "PC inspector", and I actually see them in windows explorer (thumbnails) but when I tried to open, says: "Drawing Failed". Any one can help me with this?…

How do i fix the damage winfixer has done, and remove it?

August 27, 2009

A program known as "Win Fixer" recently installed itself to my computer. Iv dealt with this program before, on another computer, its spywear that hides itself and creates more and more popups that appear the moment i start up an internet explorer or Fire fox copy. Iv deleted anything named "Win fix" that the search function on windows explorer found, but the popups continue dispite my virus scanner saying I have no spywear on the system. Its gotten even worse now. If i open any internet program windows says it has to close windows explorer! Then my startbar disapears, my computer lags for a few moments, and it appears again, but if i dont close the internet explorer or fire fox it dose it again within a few moments, and dosnt stop untill the internet is closed. I dont want to buy ANOTHER anti spywear program and im not good enough to change anything inside windows itself. Is there any way short of erasing my hard drive to fix this?

Computer help…PLEASE…Hijjack this log file?

August 1, 2009

My computer is totally wacked. I turn it on and it says that there’s something wrong with the BIOS (I have no idea what that is) and to hit F2 to contine and I do but then something goes wrong and I get a blue screen so I restart my computer with the power button and it brings up the screen about the BIOS when it restarts but as its trying to do the next thing I hit F8 and then I choose to start windows normally and then my computer goes on. Once my computer is on its restarts randomly and is soslow. Also online, I can’t go to hardly any websites without this "Certificate error" thing. As far as virus protection I had Windows firewall and AVG (the free one) and this other lavasoft spyware thing. Well I ordered virus protection from Verizon but it wont download. It says to check my internet connection – which I’m pretty sure is fine. So, obviously there’s something wrong with my computer and so I download hijackthis. If someone could help me out I really appreciate it:

June 29, 2009

a work computer got infected with advance xp defender, later on the computer was infected with spyguard, password proctect and advance xp fix. by that time the computer was unusable. i did a little search and malware bytes antimalware was the way to go. the virus got removed but now the computer wont start. as soon as windows explorer loads. it stops in the blue screen and halts in error 0x50. i search around and its caused by bad drivers loaded by the virus. i tried to erase those drivers in safe mode but they are locked even tried file assasin but still wont load.
i need to fix this asap a lot of accounting software and clients information in that computer.
