Dear emailaatif786,
Try using the following .......
1. First, update your antivirus software and do a thorough system scan.
2. Download Spybot search and destroy ( A freeware ) - Install and update it and and then Immunize your system with it and then perform a full system scan .
3. Last but not the least, download and install "WinXP manager" and follow the system optimization, IE fix , sys-host fix etc. as offered by this tool.

Hope that will solve your problem.
Wish you all the best.
regards.

ur sys is definitely infected with adwares and spywares. i reccomend lavasoft ad-aware. its free fo personal use and very effective. just scan ur pc once and a lot of the probs u mentioned will go away (definitely the one of getting redirected to casino websites). the ideal solution would be to just reinstall ur OS but since u don't wanna do that, just scan ur pc

I installed Avast 4.7 Home and Spybot.
But No Virus Found. AND
30668 Bad Products were Blocked by SPYBOT-SEARCH & DESTROY.
There was a change in My Computer. It worked nice, All the ABOVE Problems were Over,
But Today, AGAIN:
Browser HomePage Gets to www.msn.com
and Win32 ..... Service Error comes.
I Also tried to replace svchost.exe from Windows XP CD. But nothing Happened.
What can I do now?
