The gray box on the bottom of my screen will not change from gray even after restarting my computer. This means that the update did not take. Any ideas?\n\nThanks!

click on the box, and do the update from there.

I'm not sure why it totally disappears, but if you right click on the title bar, then click restore, it should work the same way. I'd try it and see if it works.

You should be able to boot up using a default mode on your display then upgrade.\n\nAlso, the display should be there, look under control panel->display->settings.

Yahoo! doesn't always update immediately and there is no way to manually refresh it. Unfortunately, the only thing to do is to wait until they do update it.

probably need to do a system restore.\n\n hit start/programs/accessories/system tools/system restore.\n \n then you pick a date to restore to then you let it do its thing.

Try going to "tool"..Internet options...Advanced...and restore defaults

You could try installing it again and then try uninstalling it again. Sometimes that works.

Did you set it up to automatically do the update and install it? You need to go to Control Panel, systems, then your security center to tell it to manually ask you if you want the update.\n\nI have a fix for the genuine problem, just contact me if you want to know how to get rid of it.

It worked!! I've spent almost all afternoon/evening trying to get this irritating thing off my laptop! But there still is one tray icon with the tooltip "Virus Alert". And a small popup that says Your Computer is Infected! Critical System. Did any of you face the same problem?

You will need to do one or two things,but not at the same time.One you may have to reload or use the cd that came with the program that you are using.ANd see if it works that way.Or you may need to update you OS to newer upgrade.And if that does not work you need to check the name to see if it is spelled right they are often very UPPERCASE sentive about that.

You probably need to uninstall the old version first.\nGo into Start, Control Panel, find current programme listed, and delete.\nYou should then be able to install new version.

Restart your computer and try again. If that doesn't work, uninstall it then reinstall.

Sorry you don't like it. Here is something I just now found. No guarantees. :) Open your add/remove window in controls and check the box at the top that says "show updates". The go down the list until you get to Windows XP - Software Updates. There should be a line for WMP 11. Actually two lines. At least that is what I have. Try uninstalling now. Like I said no promises. I'm happy with version 11 so I'll stay with it.

I had this same problem...and ended up downloading the newest version, which corrected the problem completely.  I've listed the site below, so you can do the same.  Sometimes, you can't update this automatically, so go there and reinstall the newest version and it should correct the problem.  Good luck!

I was having that problem tonight too.  I had to hit the refresh button several times and then the screen would finally come up.\n\nGood Luck!
