My computer at that moment was already infected with a virus that was causing all this abnormal slowdown. I started to run Macfee and my computer told me that some files were mising. When I tried to copy those mising files from my original Windows XP CD my computer gave me a diagnostic error saying bad partitions, then the nightmare came to reality, my computer went blue and it didn't recognized my hardrive. I am using my second portable computer to report my findinds. PS: Please disregard the last match, since the settings was correct I thought that the result should be printed, but internaly my computer was dying slowly.
