Hi ApBurtonBoarder8

As Snowbound suggested, try the AIM fix first (it has been recently updated so to be sure and download the most recent version, you can find a download link at MajorGeek's) AIM fix 1.0

Then I would suggest you follow the steps in the General Cleaning Instructions for further checking and cleanup.

Let us know how you do.

Regards,

snap
