johnny45 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 My son downloaded utorrent onto system, now I have my desktop icons showing a utorrent ico and when i try to access the internet, yahoo, or anything on my computer I get a warning that says "Unable to load (whatever i am trying to access):Invalid torrent file" I was able to gain access to the internet by asking for updates and then getting to different pages from there. I tried to uninstall utorrent but it won't uninstall and I don't know what to do next or why I am getting those alert. Also it opens the utorrent window with the alert over it. Pleas someone help me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 It happens when you try to open any program (files that end with .exe)? If that's the case your EXE association is busted. http://filext.com/faq/broken_exe_association.phpAny other extensions messed up (letters after a dot, like .exe)?

johnny45 Posted July 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 no just like you mentioned anything with .exe system will not open correctly, open instead the utorrent window w/alert that it is not a utorrent file or correct extension for utorrent does link take me to someplace where i can fix this and will i be able to uninstall utorrent afterward? Thank you for your help so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
