System Restore resulted in "Runner Error"

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.configuration_manage (More info?)

After completing a system restore I got an error message stating "Runner file
name (fspex.exe) lacks a '-' (the app id separator)." Further attempts at
restoring to a point before the error occurred have been unsuccessful. Can
someone tell me how to fix this problem?

Start by making sure your antivirus software is up to date and scan your
system. Also make sure your system is clear of malware, download, install
and run Ad Aware, www.lavasoftusa.com.

Hi Wes
While I appreciate your response, I'm not sure I know what to do with the
information. I have Shaw Secure on my system but have had problems with it
from the start - that is why I was doing the system restore in the first
place. I never did
get the spam control or pop up preventer installed and was using Spybot.
