The best words can't be removed permanently. He must have installed a hidden file that creates the add on every time the computer is started.

I inadvertently allowed the best words to add to install for Firefox. It's annoying adds and sometimes links to malware. It can be disabled or removed from a session and become non-functional after you restart Firefox, but whenever the computer is started, it reappears. I guess it must be a file hidden somewhere that re - installs the add-in on each time the computer is started. Does anyone know how to permanently delete it?

Hello HLT44, try to run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner.

  • Cannot install Windows 7 "Windows didn't prepare the computer to start the next phase of the installation." to install Windows, restart the application.

    Original title: Installation of Windows 7.

    I tried to install Windows 7 (clean install from XP and reveived the following message is displayed:)

    Windows didn't prepare the computer to start the next phase of the installation.  to install Windows, restart the application.

    I restarted my PC, anti anti-virus disabled (as advised) and still get the error message.

    According to the Upgrade Advisor Windows 7 my PC is compatible.

    Any ideas?

    If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

    I agree with the post of Jeeped formatting the drive will be enough for what you want.

    Make sure you have the 25 character product key to activate before the start. If the machine is an office look at the back of the COA that will have the product key; the COA on a laptop is usually on the bottom. The product key may be also in the case of CDs, the installation discs are in or in any documentation you received. If you are not able to find, Jeeped of Belarc or Magical Jelly Bean suggestion will help.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

    Hello Wanda.

    One command, but lets see what we can do to whittle the list down. First, dial-up internet connection is slow, so keep that in mind that we work here.

    Second, almost all your startup programs are valid and advised to load at startup of Windows. Some possible changes:

    (1) If you need not a specific to Java, such as might have the game that you are trying to play, so you don't need to have it is launched at startup.

    (2) regarding the Adobe programs, why do you have Acrobat on your computer? Do you need to create PDF files? Adobe Reader which has many freeware alternatives that are faster, used to read PDF files. So if you need only to read PDF files, you can stop Acrobat from loading at startup.

    (3) other startup programs are all legitimate. And remember, just because you do not start a program at startup, does not mean that you cannot start later if you find that you don't need it.

    (4) the problems you encounter to "all sites that you visit" could be a function of malware. You don't have AVG Antivirus running on your computer just? I recommend do you a scan in depth and then put in quarantine and remove any infections it finds.

    (5) after you run the virus scan, I suggest that you try to download and run these two scanners. First MalwareBytes' Antimalware, here: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html.  Secondly, SUPERAntiSpyware, here: http://download.cnet.com/SuperAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html. Quarantine and remove all infections they find.

    (6) after doing this, restart your computer and see how it works. Please post your results here, and if you have any questions during this process, post here and I'll help you. Let me know how you fare.

    Kind regards
