Hey,
Did you try to reinstall windows or do a system restore to the point where the cd worked?
On the internet explorer, did you try to "repair and reinstall" function to get IE working again?
thanks, Paul

...the programs started to not run and also my internet explorer wont let me into the internet tools...

I dodn't know XP but could that have something to do with permissions or a security feature? Do you have a *GOOD* and *UPDATED* virus program running? Also, just for the heck of it, have you run Ad-Aware and/or Spybot? Also, I just noticed: There's a *HUGE* difference between "won't install" and "won't run".
