I need some help, I have a computer (with Windows XP Professional SP2
that when I right click on the desktop and select properties nothin
opens up. Or if I go through the control panel and try to ope
something up, nothing happens. I installed Registry Mechanic and ran i
and it did not correct the problem. I also read about repairing Window
using the WINNT.EXE in the i386 folder and that did not even finish, s
that did not work. Anybody have any ideas????? Please help

I spend a lot of time each month cleaning up PC's with Virus & Spyware
infections.
Your symptoms are very typical of a Virus or Spyware infection that has
compromised your PC
Programs like Registry Mechanic though competent at what they do are 'not'
Anti Virus / Anti Spyware programs.

I have had a quick look at the forum that 'jholland1964' suggested
(http://forum.iamnotageek.com/t-1819059447.html)
and can only encourage you to follow the steps therein. ALL the steps.

If you do not feel inclined to follow those steps then your only (repeat
'only') realistic alternative is to reformat and reinstall.

BTW running WinNT.exe is not a good idea for XP, reinstallation it is best
done by booting from the XP CD, especially as there is a version of
WinNT.exe that is in fact a Virus

Best of luck
