Friend's Computer is completely FUBAR...
OK, here goes:
A few days ago, my friend's Win ME comp wouldn't start-up properly... it would come up with a blue screen, and some "PCGPC error" crap.
So I restore it to the day before. Put in the floppy disk, it's all good 
Then I check the computer in general... Limewire works 100% fine 
However, if I try to open a windows folder, or an IE window, it screws up. Firefox can't connect to the internet, yet limewire can 
The computer is littered with spyware, and it's really hard to remove it all.
So, any ideas... whats the deal?

I think it's the Spyware. When you turn on the net, it'll get overloaded and do stuff like that. I use Norton Antivirus.

Oh yeah, forgot to add.... MSN doesn't connect either 
Meaning I'd have to download Norton for him from limewire, which is risky

Or any other Spyware uninstallers you know off, thought make sure you trust them and now they work well. All of the internet connections don't work because Spyware clogged it all up.

I didn't tell him, and just went and got the XP disk 
On the plus side, he's kept all his songs, games etc... just need to re-install the broadband drivers and it's all gravy again
