Missing Taskbar?

sethisamazing · 11-06-2009, 04:28 PM

Ok, so I have a machine that is running xp, and the taskbar disappeared.

A few days ago, I installed AVG free edition so I could get rid of a virus (spybot or malwarebytes would not run) and it got rid of some stuff and started to work like normal again. Then one day I started it up and the taskbar wasn't there. I looked up online how to get it back, but every other problem like this has been accompanied by missing icons, not the case here. I can only access programs via task manager and no means of connecting to the internet will work. I found a program called "kill32.exe" in sys32 folder which I googled and deleted.

Any help on this situation would be great!

Hello....

You might consider posting this at Security Forum, it looks like your computer is still infected.
