Spywareblaster does not start

Hello,
I installed SpywareBlaster 3.2 under a WIN98 system.

If I try to start it, I got the following message:

I did a scan disk, no bad sector.

I installed the same downloaded copy on another system, Spyblaster runs OK on it.

Here is my Hijackthis report:

Thanks for your help.

 

Hey athuret....Welcome to Wilders

Unfortunately Wilders no longer allows unsolicited HijackThis logs posted as noted in the Announcement link below. I will be removing your log sometime shortly.

This link---> Stopping HijackThis Log Cleaning Services!

Concerning the error message....Please see if the below Javacool Software KB article will help with your problem. Let us know how it goes.

This KB article---> Error message: "This program has been damaged, possibly by a bad sector of the hard drive or a virus. Please reinstall it.
"

Bubba

 

Hello Bubba,

I already saw the link you gave me and follow it without finding any solution.

If your forum does not care about my SpyrewareBlaster problem, then you have to change the title of this forum.

Anyway, I really appreciate a lot your kindful help.

So long!

 

Bubba, two more things:

I actually followed the three links you indicated without finding anything before submitting my problem to this forum as the title seems to me as the best place to do that.

If you don't want to change the title of you forum you can erase my whole thread and my member name.

 

I can understand your frustration when something with these dang computers goes hay wire and hopefully you will realize Wilders is a good place to be as a member once you get your PC back to where you want it to be. Then you'll be able to enjoy some of the other Forums besides the Spywareblaster Forum. Heck....we've even got a couple of Forums where you can cut up and act goofy

As for that Spywareblaster message concerning virus....perhaps that's the direction we need to look in case that's the problem. That is also sometimes associated with what they call a CoolWebSearch Hijack. If you have the time....try following the comprehensive steps found in General Cleaning....and if you run into problems....feel free to holler back....we'll be glad to help ya beat this sucker.

If those steps do not resolve your situation....you could always post your HighJackThis log at one of the forums found at A-SAP. The two bigger forums for HijackThis log processing, (meaning they process more log threads each day than most others) are: SpywareInfo.com and CastleCops.com. Be sure to read their posting policy in the links at their log review forum sections prior to posting.

Hope that helps ya....let us know how you do....and have a great weekend

Regards,
Bubba

 

@ tinku....I have split your post off into a thread of it's own for better assistance.
