Computer/Internet problem

Win 7 has a back up feature like win xp, you can go back to a date when everything worked and it resets to that date without loosing anything you put in after that date, I would try that, Jim

You would think that works, right? I dont know about Win7, but in WinXP, you had to manually set a restore point, because they never automatically saved....even when I had it on setting automatic restore points.

My XP crashed a few times, and lost everything, because the auto restore never worked.
Only restore points that I had manually created ever worked.

When you get it working right again, manually make a restore point on your pc. I think you have to make one at least every three months.

This is actually one of my favourite TV shows! I work in IT and have actually answered the phone with this line a few times! Most people don't get it though! ._.

My XP, which I got in 2008 (last chance) came with a pre-installed program called Farstone RestoreIt. It would create a restore point every time the computer is rebooted. A couple years ago I came up with a super virulent virus that was rewriting the registry, and it evaded detection by whatever freeware virus protection I had, then again defeated Kapersky, and was only slowed down some by Malware Bytes. Using the RestoreIt program, I did a restore to a date which I knew was before I had gotten the virus, and that fixed the remaining problems.

I don't know if Farstone is still around. It might be worth a search.
