Cannot get any antivirus or firewall's running on my PC.

As soon as i try to install them they dissapear.

I have formatted and reinstalled XP twice today to try and sort it but nowt,.

Any ideas.

Jed.
 
Really unusual after a full format/clean install :confused:

Only suggestion is to disconnect cable modem/dsl/lan during the install - ensure nothing spurious gets on there before the anti-virus software etc..

Thanks for your help guys.

Kramer i am not very computer litarate.Should i formatt my other drive's aswell.Could there be something hiding there.

Last night is when all this started.It would not let me get in to my Nochex & Paypal accounts.Kept saying something about privacy.

I was thinking about disconnecting the cable aswell.Might try that later.

I await your reply. :)

Try AVG ( antivirus, free for home use)
ZoneAlarm ( firewall free for home use).

worked very well for me over the years.
