What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)? Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 Steve Miller wrote: > Services.exe was trying to shutdown my computer after boot up.

Hi Mr,Ease, the computer runs Windows XP Media Center 32 bit. The Windows copy was genuine. The error was Winsows related, not caused by a virus or malware or there like, I think. I had it before, and added an other user, Now it's being back. Other symptoms are, the Windows update website dosen't work, as well as the acticvation program. Pretty bad I think. Steve
