hi, at a freinds today, and they had a problem opening my computer on winxpsp2
scanned with adaware SE 1.05, Spybot S&D 1.3, CWshredder 2, NOD32, Mcafee, Fprot, Regcleaner, Regcompact...... all updated, found few small problems.. but even after scanning and repairing with them, whenever i opened my computer i got an error "explorer has encountered an error and will now be closed.. etc etc.." so i clicked on details and it showed something about a mod called "customie32"
none of these virus scanners or spyware tools found thgis, which i thought was very strange..
anyway i did a search for CustomIE
up popped customIE32.dll in system32..
i rebooted too safe mode and deleted it..
now when i click on my computer, it at least opens, but just shows the torch searching for items...
wondering if anyone has come across this before? thought id ask here before i proced too format and reinstal his machine..
thanks for any help
