whenever i get online
and log into my yahoo messenger

it indicated that i have messages in my in box and when i click on the link for messages my comp shows the deraded blue screen and somrtimes even restarts itself

does it have any relation to the fact that my times and date is not correct due to drained out CMOS battery

i am using ver 6
OS is win 98 (2)
the blue screen shows following message


An exceptional OE has occured at 0028:w01ac86 in VxD NDIS (01) +

The false time setting can affect crashes but it depends how the software handles them. See if it is repeatable and you are sure that the battery is dead why not replace it? before trying any thing.

Please provide the version number and your OS....

Are you using version 7?

 

[expertno.1]

yeah version 7 is in its beta stage and its hangs and has many bugs
use version 6 its the best till now

BTW OS not mentioned

 

[vandit]

he has mentioned that he uses version 6 ..... and os is win 98 SE .

for the bloodhound virus thing, do a google search from a cafe for a removal tool.
