Right let me explain. A little while ago my brother decided to get DC++ and this ran fine..for a bit. It started to mess up my computer and so I uninstalled it and then my problem began. By doing this I somehow managed to get rid of my internet connection. Before this I could play The Battle for Middle Earth online without any problems. I managed to fix the connection and could go online on the internet and even though it messes up MSN. But I can't go on Battle for Middle Earth(BFME).It says that either it can't establish a connection or it goes and tries to go to the screen where you login. It takes about a minute to get there and when I try to login it says there is a login timeout.


I then reinstalled BFME..didn't work.
I then reinstalled the internet...didn't work
I then reinstalled BFME..again..didn't work

Same problem with the game.



Everytime I turn on my computer it comes up with some Windows error screen which says something about firewalls and asks if I want to send an error report.Also some website called Zango opens and it asks if I want to install it or something but because it is something I don't recognize I don't install it.


I have no idea what to do so I would really like it if you good people would help me.

I have also gone on the EA website and done what it recommends but the game still doesn't work.

Try all of these. I know one removes it but I've forgotten which.

It says that(AVG) there was a virus dtected while opening C:\WINDOWS\System32\rdriv.sys and it won't go away. I press heal and it says it is healed but then comes up again and when it said you need to restart to complete heal but it came back when the computer came back on.

Sorry if there are loads of mistakes I can only see half of the screen due to virus detected box.

Must be the 'Dr' one then.

It's the best one but only free for a trial period.

I've tried them all and I've found Adaware finds the most stuff on average with AVG sorting out anything it's missed.

Yep that's very good on a short-term basis.

Long-term you have to pay, no doubt you've a cracked version though. :P

Update Adaware and run it.

Get AVG free and run it.

Adaware won't stop everything on it's own.
