| 121364 | 2003-02-15 01:41:00 | The taskbar used to show windows which are open but it won't show anymore! I've tried: ------------- - Unlocking + dragging the quick launch bar. - Moved position of taskbar to the side to see if it gets revealed - Did a system restore - Scanned the computer for any viruses with latest defs using NAV 2003 - Increased the height of the taskbar to see if that reveals it. So far, I've come up with no solutions. Can anyone help? |

| 121365 | 2003-02-15 02:00:00 | You have probably opened a greeting Card link and downloaded a program which can cause this. Open 'Control Panel' and select 'Add/Remove Programs'. Check for the program entries of WinSrvReg and Friend Greetings. If found, uninstall the program and reboot . |

| 121367 | 2003-02-15 02:46:00 | There is nothing in Add/Remove programs that you mentioned. And I'm sure that it's NOT a virus because it only happens on my user account and not on other user accounts |

| 121368 | 2003-02-15 02:47:00 | Whats with using links on this site?? I've had trouble with every link here, and now when I post my own I have the same trouble! It seems to have inserted a space, yet I copied and pasted that link direct. *sigh* You'll have to fiddle with it to see the page (assuming it's not just me that this happens to?) |

| 121371 | 2003-02-15 03:58:00 | I still suspect the greeting card trojan is causing it. Check the info Here (vil.nai.com) there may be different names for it and it may not show in add/remove programs.It may have to be removed manually by the instruction here. |

| 121372 | 2003-02-15 05:09:00 | I don't even have the files mentioned on my puter! Anyway, I created a new account on my PC... I just need to know how to retain mail and newsgroup settings + e-mails sent/received through OE so I can view+use them on the new account. |

| 121373 | 2003-02-15 18:07:00 | I'm not sure of your 'unlocking and dragging' but if I have a number of applications open I use my curser to make the task bar larger. Just place the curser on top of the task bar untill it becomes a double headed arrow, then left click and drag upwards to make the task bar 2 or 3 thicknesses high and it will expose any hidden open applications. Hope this helps? | Shooter (3119) | ||
