    Surely, Imran M will come up with some other ideas - it's their job and they are the ones that Microsoft hired as their "experts".

    Tell us exactly the message that see you in its entirety, follow this:

    No matter what you use for malware protection, follow these steps:

    Download, install, update and do a quick scan with these free malware detection programs (not at the same time) and remove all threats:

    SAS will probably report a lot of tracking cookies and you can just let him delete them.

  • Generic Host Process for Win32 Services

    I get the Generic Host Process for Win32 Services has encountered a problem message whenever I have use standby or hibernation and then restart. All the forums that I can find and article say "this problem only occurs in the Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2)." but I'm already on the SP3.

    Feature: Dell Latitude D830

    OS: XP Professional

    Version: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600

    I doubt sincerely tried these "methods" help you at all (like most of the 'methods').

    In addition, you need to 'do' not ' trying '.

    First I would make sure that your system is reasonably free malware as follows:

    Download and run TDSSkiller from Kaspersky Lab:

    http://support.Kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?QID=208280684

    Download and run Hitman Pro here and during installation to be 100% sure to refuse the installation of toolbars, decline any e-mail options, nothing to do with Bing or MSN, perform a scan time, accept no e-mail and activate the free license:

    http://www.SurfRight.nl/en/downloads/ (make sure you get the free version)

    Then:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

    If you still have problems, follow these steps:

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    Now make some clarifications:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

    This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

  • Generic host process for win32 services has encountered a problem and cannot update windows

    Whenever I start my computer, I get this error message "generic host process for win32 services has encountered a problem and needs to close." The details of this problem are:

    (szappname:svchost.exe), (szappver:5.1.2600.5512), (szmodver: 0.0.0.0), (offset: 001 has 6240), (szmodname: unknown)

    c:/DOCUME~1/owner/locals~1/temp/wer94ea.dir00/appcombat.txt

    I also send an error report whenever this happens.

    The computer is running XP, but lately some settings have been changed such that the display is windows classic instead of XP.

    In addition, I can't run Windows Update completely. It freezes / hangs up in the middle of the update. I have also no audio.

    Please help, I ran SuperAntispyware, Spybot, and Avira. I'm lost!

    Reinstalling the operating system is unable to solve your problem. There is no need to do this if the problem is not related to the operating system and you find that you are back where you started.

    You gave us a general indication of the nature of the problem but the specific error reports are a much easier solution.

    When a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) the system failure occurs, for most users, there not enough time to fully record what he says. the exact text is important for anyone trying to diagnose what is wrong. You can save time when the error occurs then by following the procedure described below.

    If you already did it disable the auto reboot system error. This should help by allowing the time to write the code to Stop error and related information correctly. Do right click on the icon my computer on the desktop and select Properties, advanced, startup and recovery, system failure and uncheck the box before automatically restarting. Re-do not enable automatic restart in the event of system failure after obtaining this information, this setting is the best left to not allow an automatic restart.

    If the failure occurs during the initialization of the computer, you need to try a different approach. You can access the Advanced Options Menu of Windows on multiple computers by constantly pressing the F8 (key) key when starting and selecting the option - disable automatic restart in case of system error. This method is not always easy to use because it may be difficult to press the F8 key at the right time. Try again if it doesn't work the first time. On some computers, a different key must be used.

    Take a look in the system and Application logs in the errors and warnings event viewer and post here the copies. Do not post on that more than 48 hours ago.

    You can access event viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, and Event Viewer. When searching for the meaning of the error, information about the event ID, Source and Description are important.

    A tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. You will see a button resembling two pages. Click on the button and close Event Viewer. This places a copy of the report to your Clipboard. Paste it into the body of your message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

    Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell
