Explorer won't come up
when I dial up the internet, I connect but nothing happens. (yahoo use to come up) I still have it set as my home page. My computer Keeps freezing and saying I don't have enough memory. I have to go to my documents and type in yahoos web site.
also when I ctrl-alt-del I have a lot of programs running that I never had before and i'm not sure what they are. How do I get rid of them.
I have window me, Dimension 8100, I've done a virus scan, Defrag and disk scan everything was fine

Some of these sound like spyware and other internet parasites. Download, install, update, and run Ad-Aware and Spybot and let these programs remove all of the garbage that they find.

If these programs don't solve the problem, go to the following site and follow the directions to download and run the analysis tool called HijackThis.

SteveSome of them I have deleted, when I got back on the computer before dialing up and yahoo came up. some of them I believe were bargain, nls, wsbb,something survey and i,m not sure what the others were. I went to my add and remove programs but I really couldn't find anything there that would help me. It's just strange how when i started end tasking some of these programs, i dialed up and yahoo came up.
I just need to delete some of these programs but am not sure how

Give us some examples of the programs that are running that you "never had before".
