I haven't renamed or moved it, no. When I try to run jscript or vbscripy it comes up as failed. I tried Dial-A-Fix and it didn't solve the problem, no.I don't get the javascript problems in Firefox, does that shed light on things? Jim

Has anybody got any brain waves? jim

Hi cluberti, My PC came with Windows XP already loaded so I don't have a disc to completely reinstall everything (although I do have a Dell Reinstallation disc.) If I did have a disc I would be reluctant to completely start again as last time I was advised to do this (about 8 years ago) it completely mucked the PC up and I spent almost as much money trying to fix it than it would have cost to buy a new PC. I tried reinstalling jscript and internet explorer but either has made any difference. Jim

Hi cluberti, they came up as failed, and again in Dial a Fix jscript and vscript came up as failed again.Any ideas? Thanks for your help so far. Jim

Hi cluberti, thanks for the reply. Windows Script isn't listed in the Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. I tried reinstalling it from the Microsoft website and although a box came up INSTALLED, an error box also came up saying error registering the ocx c:\windows\system32\jscript.dll Jim

Thanks for the link Mijzelf. I ran Dial A Fix and it came up with the following: An error occured during thr registration of the file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\jscript.dll (version 5.7.0.16535). This object may be corrupted. An error occured during thr registration of the file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\vscript.dll (version 5.7.0.16535). This object may be corrupted. Jim

Hi nitroshift, thanks for the reply. What's dial a fix? Sorry, I have literally zero knowledge about PC's! jim

I had a virus on my PC which a friend of mine got rid of. But my computer is going a bit barmy since and I think he's corrputed the javascript or maybe even deleted it (when I go to Start>Run>regsvr32 jscript.dll it comes up as failed). The search assistant and system restore don't work at all, they just come up as completely blank. Windows Media Player won't load, not even when I click on a video or song and ask to play it in WMP. Online I can't log into certain websites, anything or any link that requires javascript won't work (such as youtube, it says javascript is turned off but it's enabled in Internet Options)... all these things were working fine even when I had the virus. I've run scans and it's not showing any viruses, so I don't think it's to do with another virus. I have Windows XP. I have Avast Anti Virus, SUPERAntiSpyware and SpywareBlaster installed. Has anyone got any ideas on how to rectify this, it would be very much appreciated. THANKS
