Windows (XP) kinda shut down, might have a virus. I've been trying to get my stuff off the computer. Task manager works (Ctrl-Alt-Delete), and I can run programs from there, and access all my files, but I cannot open search windows, and my task bar and start menu on the desktop are non existant. I started prnting out my files but my printer started printing in a wierd format. It prints the pages I want, but the words are in a different font size, not all the words are on the page, they're (I think) in random order, and most of the words is cut off. My printer prints page after page after page of these pages. This has happened before, but before I would go to the task bar, click on the printer icon, and cancel it. Since my task bar doesn't exist anymore, I would like to know how I can access the printer from the task manager to cancel the project. Thanks.

1st, your computer is hosed.
2nd, get a new drive with XP,and slave the old drive . Get Norton utilities
You can access and move files then.
But wait! There's more!!!
Run any file you want to move through a virus scan first!!!
Run it on the entire slave disc, you may save it, and can put it back as your boot drive
