All of the links are valid, but some of them you may need to run from IE instead of Firefox.

The first 3 links are still giving me a "Page cannot be displayed" error. I always use IE, except when im at your house. Thats probably the source of most of my problems...
The last 2 virus scans didnt do anything, and I can't get to the other sites. I think im screwed.

Try these suggestions:
IEFix -- http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFIX.htm
Winsockfix -- http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/N...nSockFix.shtml
Why aren't you using Firefox? You can get it from here:

Theres nothing wrong with my IE, so i dont know how those are supposed to help. I ran both, nothing noticable happened. Task manager still doesn't stay open.
And guess what happened today?
My xbox died! Yup, my life just keeps getting worse...

Try these two; if you're able to scan with Ewido, post the log here after you run it.
CounterSpy -- http://www.download.com/CounterSpy/3...ml?tag=lst-0-1
Ewido -- http://www.download.com/Ewido-Securi...ml?tag=lst-0-1
Sorry to hear about your Xbox :cry:

scanning with ewido now, i will scan with counterspy later, i have to restart my computer to use it. Ewido is at 12% and has already found 13 infected things, so I think this one might work. I will edit with a log when scan is complete.
