PC Troubles

[koolharleymama]

I can't seem to find help elsewhere,maybe someone here can help! Here's the deal; I used to play free games on-line like Pogo.com and Games.com;plus I used to be able to upload photos on my Facebook. Now,when I try to the games will start to load and then it kicks me back to my desktop-same with uploading pictures. I've defragmented,uninstalled and reinstalled Flash players and plugins,still the same thing happens-I don't have a clue what to do and it's very frustrating! Can someone PLEASEEEEEEEEE help me? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

What browser are you using? Do you have any toolbars that are unnecessary ?

[koolharleymama]

I've tried using EI and firefox-the same thing happens on both! No extra toolbars on EI-coolchaser toolbar on Firefox. Have any ideas?

Hello koolharleymama,

Do you have the lastest version of flash installed?

Have you done the usual virus/malware scans?  I recommend you scan with ALL of the following:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
SpyBot Search & Destroy
LavaSoft AdAware
Avira AntiVir

Scan with all of those and make sure you don't have any funny business going on.

clear your cookies and try scanning for viruses! delete anything that you don't use and check your memory usage! maybe you don't have any room left.(those are just guesses)

I agree with what the others have said.  If you don't already have anti-virus, anti-spyware software, and a firewall get them NOW!  There are several, well rated, FREE anti-viruse, anti-spywares. and firewalls out there you can install. 

As far as why your games may not be loading at places like Pogo.com.  I have been playing at Pogo for close to ten years.  All their games are Java based.  If they aren't loading, check to make sure you have Java enabled.  If you do, and they still aren't loading, try installing the latest version Sun Java.

Do you  have a 'recover' area?? My computer was messing up, and I 'recovered' it, and it works fine now. I also use MRT... that is windows spyware ridder.

Do you have a pop-up blocker on your browser. Maybe its messing up the games?
