Wife's Install
 
Recently I reinstalled Win XP Pro and installed SP3 and then all the
critical updates plus WMP 11. Her antivirus is NOD32 business.

The HDD is 250 gb split into four partitions, with the OS on C drive and
programs (very few) installed on D drive. She has 512 mb memory which her
purpose is plenty. The machine is only used for reading email and playing
on line games.

This install has been a pain since day one. First time I installed I only
used SP2 and got all the updates. When I did that I could not get rid of
the login screen no matter what I did. That is when I put back an Acronis
image of the initial install and installed SP3 with all the critical update.
At that point everything looked great.

Here is what I have run into now. She plays games on king.com and right now
when she trys to log in there, as soon as she click into the "username" box
she is redirected to another site. We have seen this happen at no other
site, she can log into web email and several other sites that she visits.
To say the least she is irate because I can not fix this.

I went back reinstalled WinXP again and installed all the critical updates
without using SP3. Crap it does the same thing, so is not SP3 and has to be
one of the updates. Which one I have no idea. I really need some help with
this before she has a fit.


Thank you
