Whenever I start up XP, it always says "systask32L.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close". Does anyone know what that means and if it can fixed?

Sounds pretty weird to me...I am familiar with that type of error but I have never heard of that program and it doesn't turn up any results when googled.

Nerts. What else can I do?

Hiya

It may be from the W32/[email protected] virus:

Update your antivrus program, or do an online scan here:

Thanks for that link. Turns out I had over 300 files infected with one virus or another. Didn't get rid of the error message though.

Get a good virus scanner, download SpyBot Search-n-Destroy, and clean up your system. Then you can find the remaining issues...
