HI
Thanks for ur patience have tried the certificate thingy thats OK but
Um it gets worse
When i type cmd in the run box I get the following error message
c:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.com
c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXE.NT. The systemfile is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'close' to terminate the
application.
Same thing applies if i type regedit as well
Regards Mike
