O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE

Then Boot to safe mode: Instructions here

Make sure you can view hidden and system files: Instructions here

Note....even in safe mode you may have to open taskmanager and end task on some of them before you can delete them.

Delete the following files\folders IF still present:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\bridge.dll

Reboot

Empty your Temporary Internet Files and history in Internet Options. And clean out your
%Userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp
folder. It's a good idea to do that regularly.

Then Disable system restore: Instructions here
Reboot

Enable System Restore.

Pls. post another log.

 

I am unable to clear my temporary internet files folder - it always ends up not responding...and when i try to manually delete, there are just WAY too many files to do it by hand - and not all of them can be deleted.

Any suggestions?

When do I take the computer out of safe mode?

 

Additionally, I am unable to get out of Safe Mode. I really hope this is temporary as I have an exam tomorrow and need my laptop.

 

Hi ckcharm,

To get out of Safe Mode:

Click Start --> Run and type in msconfig
The System Configuration Utility will appear.
UN-check the box beside SAFEBOOT.
Close all programs and restart your computer normally.

You can use the Disk Cleanup Manager to clear your temp files.
Go to Start --> Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. This will bring up the Disk Cleanup Manager.
Place a check mark in the box beside Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files, and Recycle Bin.
Then click "OK" and the Disk Cleanup Wizard will delete the files you've placed a check mark beside.

Regards,

snap
