your going to need to buy a new hard drive to fix it

actually it’s easy to fix. use google, and search… there fixes out there for the various AIM bugs… just type in AOL BUG FIX and some info that distinglishes your bug… you’ll find stuff, theres tons of other people who were dumb enough to do the same thing, i’ve removed that bug from various people’s computers before. if you have trouble with it PM me as much info as you can on your bugs, and i’ll point you in the right direction

I got the same thing, Dom told me to do a restore point. Go to system restore, and click restore point, make it for a day before you clicked the link. I’m not sure if it worked though…I still had a message from someone on AIM saying “what picture?” this moring…So it probably doesnt work. Reformat the computer maybe?
