I wish your question was phrased in English, it would help a lot. It seems most of your problem has to do with using Internet Explorer 7. It is easy to get rid of that and go back to using IE6, and I think if you do, most of your problems will go away. Click on Start, Settings, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs and the Show Updates box at the top. When the list loads, find Internet Explorer 7 and click Yes to remove it. After removal, close Control Panel and restart the computer for the change to take effect.

You can't delete I.E., it is part of the op. system, and if you try to, you will damage the op. sys. Simply, quit using I.E. and get a real browser;

Firefox Tuning



Rise up the speed of your Firefox Browser:



Open the configuration menu by typing in the following into the field where you normally fill in the URLs:



About:config



In the config menu you have to set up the following changes:



- network.http.pipelining (put “true”)

- network.http.proxy.pipelining (put “true”)

- network.http.pipelining.maxrequests put on 100

- network.http.max-connections 48

- network.http.max-connections-per-server 16

- network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy 8

- network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server 4



You save the changes by clicking the right button of your mouse somewhere on the screen and choose new -> integer from the menu. Now you have to write nglayout.initialpaint.delay into the popup and type in number 0 into the next window.



That´s it, now you are able to surf much faster threw the internet with your Firefox browser!

MSIE7 is bloated, unstable and lacking severely in basic browser functionality.



I'm sorry no one is giving you any good explanation as to how to fix your problem, but when it comes to MSIE7, there are just way too many possibilities. You could try running WindowsUpdate to make sure it's up to date, but all in all, a lot of MSIE7 problems are repeat offenders.

OS Reinstallation vs. Virus Removal

http://safecomputing.umn.edu/guides/rebuild_repair.html



If you follow all the following steps it should get rid of your problem and prevent future problems. All programs listed are free.

------------------------------

Update your Full Time (Active) antivirus and run a full scan.



If you do not have active virus protection, install only one. All are excellent.

Try AVG first.



AVG Antivirus 7.5 Free Edition

http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/avg-anti-virus-free/lng/us/tpl/v5

http://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10669237.html?tag=lst-0-1

or

Free antivirus - avast! 4 Home Edition

http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

---------------------------------------------------------

Update your Full Time (Active) spyware protection and run a full scan. If you do not have active spyware protection, install:



Windows Defender

http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx



---------------------------------------------------------

Install the following four programs and run weekly or at least monthly. You need all four. They are not a substitute for full time spyware and virus protection. They will greatly increase your protection. Install and run now.



Ad-Aware SE Personal (update + full scan)

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad-aware_se_personal.php



Spybot Search & Destroy (update + immunize + scan)

Do not enable Tea Timer and SDHelper

After installation: update + scan + immunize

http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html



SpywareBlaster: Update then open and click “enable all protection”.

http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html



SUPERAntiSpyware free version: (update + scan)

http://www.superantispyware.com/

------------------------------

Install:



CCleaner:

http://www.ccleaner.com/

Do not install optional toolbar.

Removes tracking cookies, unneeded files, history

In options.

Set to run when computer starts.

Place cookies you want to keep in save list

-------------------------------------------------

Install either one not both:



McAfee Site Advisor: Internet Explorer and Firefox

http://www.siteadvisor.com/



McAfee SiteAdvisor helps protect you from all kinds of Web-based security threats including spyware, adware, spam, viruses, browser exploits, and online scams.



TrendProtect™

http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/free_security_tools/trendprotect.php

TrendProtect is a FREE browser plug-in that helps you avoid Web pages with unwanted content and hidden threats.

--------------------------------

Note if a scan detects a problem but is unable to remove, start the computer in safe mode with the internet line disconnected and run a full scan.



In severe cases your system restore files will also be infected. In these cases you will need to turn off system restore to prevent malware hiding in the system restore files and reinfecting the computer during removal or during a future system restore. Turning off system restore deletes the system restore files.



Right click on "my computer"> Properties > System Restore Tab > Check box turn of system restore



After the malware is removed turn on system restore.
