Thats great,at least i know i haven't done anything drastic.:TThe following is an extract from my course material for MCSE course (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer), hope it explains:
" [FONT="]Windows XP periodically checks your system to verify a valid installation. If you alter your system substantially, you may have to reactivate Windows XP.[/FONT]
[FONT="]This will not happen if you change only a couple of components (e.g. if you add additional RAM or change your video adapter), but if you change more than four major components, be prepared to reactivate Windows XP."[/FONT]0 -

Where are the Logs for Malwarebytes?
Have you followed the instruction in posts #17 & 18?
Fix these:
R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Companion\Installs\cpn1\yt.dll
F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe
O1 - Hosts: 74.125.45.100 protected.maxisoftwaremart.com....
What was the point of deleting the logs??? Honestly....some people.
