Hello, I have HP Pavillion Media Center PC m7640n. In October, my computer crashed, it wouldn't boot up at all. After trying complete system restore with built in restore program (which by the way didn't work). I then had to by the restore discs from HP (they used to come with the new computers, but not anymore). Well anywho. I did the restore with the disc I bought from them, but I am still having problems with my computer. It is running slow, programs sometimes stop responding or close without warning. sometimes & can get on the internet and sometimes I can't.
I downloaded spybot and it found some problems such double click, ad revolver, burst media, mediaplex, statcounter, casalemedia, which were all tracking cookies. Most of the things found come under wild tangent, which showed program directories, web drivers, wtupdates, data files, library files, all falling under "wild tangetn". I didn't delete anything as I wasn't sure if it would cause more problems with my computer.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
