View Full Version : accesing chat rooms

For over a week now I have not been able to access any of
the chat rooms I normally go to. A square box about
quarter of an inch in size appears with a red square,
green circle and blue triangle inside. This happens on
whatever chat room I try to access.

I have run a virus scan and got rid of a few trojan
viruses. I run ad aware, shredder and spybot each time I
boot.

I have reinstalled Internet explorer.

Nothing has happened to change my problem.

System Restore will not go back a month or two for a
restore point although there is plenty of room on my hard
drive.

Any ideas bar saving all my info and using the recovery
disk?

Check your Security and Privacy settings in Internet Explorer Properties -
set all to Default.
See if that helps
