I have a dial-up connection which s set up so that when I open outlook
express my dial-up window pops up. The the last little while that doesnt
happen. After opening OE no window pops-up. When clicking the send/reciave
button the entire app hangs up. Yesterday i discovered a some spyware/adware
infections which i have removed. I installed win xp sp2 and ms anti-spyware
and made sure there were no more infections. It seemed to be working fine
again but a couple hours later the same symptom reoccured. After a reboot
everything is fine again however after a couple of hours the same hang-up
reoccurs forcing a reboot. Could the spyware/adware have caused some sort of
damage and if so how can i reapir it?
