Dear onclejon
Yes! Yes! Yes! It worked. The problem was caused by the Warezov worm that
The PC picked up through e-mail and I stuggled using a number of different
anti-virus programmes without success. It is a pitty that a bright brain like
yours must will be wasted one day. I can now change my name from Dr Struggle
to Dr Satisfied 
Thanks again

I have an identical problem with "Dr. Struggle". But I am sorry I have
applied the recommended procedure including removing all spywares but without
success. I have newly installed a "Windows XP Unlimited" Version 2005 SP2. I
dont know if any "worm" is hiding somewhere as is the case with "Dr.
Struggle", please.
Kindly help.
