Hi Wildman. Mark Russinovich (Author of the “Bible”, Windows Internals,was a good read. Yes I tend to restore when I make a mistake with downloads, rather than just delete. There were a few things in the article that I could relate to. If there is fragmented files and a few register errors . They will likely be minimal as I am the only one using this comp. There isn't a huge amount of data on files. The errors will likely be more my incompetance in the usage of the computer.lol I'm in the age group that find it so easily turns their computers into toasters.

Hi Thanks Guys. I've got it sorted. I was locked out for a while. The computer froze, everytime I tried to do something. As I have Avast do a scan everytime I switch on my computer, the fact that the malware was interfering seemed to be the reason for the freeze. I went into "f1" safe mode and just uninstalled everything I had put in today. So that there would be no residue as I know Norton leaves a bit in there when you remove them I just restored my computer to an earlier time. All is good. My computer isn't that slow. Definately not slow enough to warrant the hassle I've had today. I'll stick with avast. It's done me well over the years. Haven't had viruses as such. Have to say I wonder now if there is as many register errors as was detected. Will get a cumputer friend to take a closer look at it. Again thanks for your imput. I've been out of the loop for hrs trying to salvage what I did today. The old saying if it's not broken leave it be is very apt in this situation. Cheers

My computer has been running slow. I did a scan with the registry booster and found I had 803 registry errors. "That's pretty bad." I went to buy the package so I could remedy these errors, but when I hit the buy button nothing happens. Also have uploaded the malwarebytes to do an extra scan incase I'm infected. Scanning now though I also have avast & clear with that. " I didn't realize malware was a part of Norton till tonight, though I had the older version on my computer before." This is the second problem. The norton malware is jamming the avast from scanning my e-mails. I had to switch it off to get the registration code to come on this forum to ask these questions. I have switched avast back on now, have instead blocked the norton from my e-mails for the time being. My questions are: (1)How can I include the norton malware and my Avast to work together? (2)How can I get access to the shopping cart to buy the register booster to fix these registry errors? Cheers
