I beleive something was deleted or damaged with my internet. When I boot up
my computer, the sys32 folder from windows pops up. Then, when I try to get
access to the internet, everything loads but any graphics! A red x does not
apparea, but the website merely stops loading after it tries to download any
files. What do I do? I think I may have to reinstall my whole internet!

Sounds Viral ! Do a scan for Virus and Spyware. Clean your harddrives
temporary files and do a defrag after making sure your anti-virus is up to
date. CHeck your security settings for your web browser and reset to
default.

I ran into this problem on a friends computer, it is most likely a worm that
replaces many system files with its own infected version. Avast Home version
was able to take care of the problem, after installing it, "OK" to a boot
scan upon restart.
