    LPt,
    You don't have a network set up so either the 1st one or last.

    Here is something else to do.

    I was just making it easy to find if you needed it.

    You don't need CMD.

    Just use Safemode.

    If it were my system I would get the free

    Download Revo Uninstaller Freeware - Free and Full Download - Uninstall software, remove programs, solve uninstall problems
    scroll down page till you see download under the free version.

    Then remove malware software
    I am not a fan of Avast.....I use MSE AV which is free also. Have had no problems with that and upgrades with Malware stuff.

    Once you removed Malware then do a normal start up and then if pc running ok then download Malware again.
    I am not a certified tech and my fee's are cheap....wolf cookies and milk.
    Let us know how it is going.

    dennis I have revo un-installer setting on my desktop now ... W-Xp..
    this has nothing to do with my virus protection. .. lol ..
    thanks for your very kind help on this matter.
    It's all about the upgrade today with Malwarebytes. I've never had my whole desktop to freeze before when I cannot get to anything there or my tool bar where my clock and PROGRAMS ARE RUNNING UNTIL TODAY.
    SO FAR NOTHING HAS WORKED TO GET ME Moving again..
    these replies are all from my laptop.

    M'Lady, you say you boot to safe mode, but then launch Windows Media Center. Why launch Windows Media Center? I'd boot to safe mode, and see if I can use a System Restore Point from before this started. If that allows you to get back to normal, I'd uninstall MalwareBytes for now. Just to see if everything works ok for a while. A Guy

    See if this link helps you (been a long time for me and XP :))

    Almost forgot about the Last Known Good Configuration option as well.
