hi
we are getting a problem on XP when trying to connect to
the internet. Windows/IE displays a message saying that
there is a problem with a file called MSVRS32.EXE ?
Anybody have any ideas what it is - and whether we can
simply attempt to restore from backup ?

Have you virus checked your system with the latest definitions for your Anti
Virus program?

Also please try these programs to check for any spyware that may be on your
system:
