photohop and IE conspiracy!!

[lynchknot]

Hello, i'm having some issues that completely baffle others. I know there are some real experts here so maybe you can help me. Please! BTW, when I come here using Firefox, I get a couple ad requests from my firewall then I get port scanned and my connection is shut down from the port scan (attack) - here is the log: edit - if I allow "adsvr.adknowledge.com" I don't get port scanned

10:07:17 PM Port scanned 69.93.243.146 TCP (3017, 3011, 3019, 3014, 3010, 3015)
9:53:46 PM Port scanned 69.93.243.146 TCP (2351, 2359, 2363, 2354, 2362, 2372)

Here is the problem I really need help with:

First of all my system is not recognizing IE

Start/all programs/Set Program Access and Defaults

Set IE back to default browser and see if this fixes your problem.

 

[soldier1st]

that looks like longhorn not xpsp2
maybe it is abobe that is the problem,check abobes website n see what it says about sp2 or longhorn

 

[lynchknot]

American Zombie, I'm aware and tried all of the "basics" IE is default (but I never had a problem with Fx as default in past)

soldier1st - it's just a VS not longhorn.

Please look at Hijack this MSIE: Unable to get Internet Explorer version!

Do you use NIS lynchknot?

 

[lynchknot]

Norton? no I use Kasperski AV, NOD32, Outpost firewall.
Here's my HJT in case it helps

Was wondering as in NIS you can hide your browser type when using I.E., so wondering if this feature is also available in your firewall and is on at the mo.

 

[Tuffgong4]

which version of photoshop are you using and is it legal...if not legal there are problems with newer versions of PS if it is warez where certain options and commands are gone

 

[lynchknot]

This is the core issue and photoshop is legal. I make themes for Firefox and have been using Photohop for a couple years.
