Windows Automatic Update downloaded IE 7 for instalation. I was running IE 7
Beta. My OS is XP Pro.
When instalation of IE 7 was supposedly complete, the computer restarted and
appears to have reset/re-installled XP Pro. My Documents folder is empty.
Outlook is empty. My Program files still exist, and the drive has 50 out of
60 gigs used- same as it did prior to IE 7 instalation.
I have tried multiple restore points and none of them have worked (error
message of 'can not restore to previous restore point' type message).
Desperate for some help. Unfortunately my back-up is corrupted.
I was running the most recent Norton Internet Security as well as Windows
Defender.

Thanks in advance
