Don't post your email address on an online forum (unless you particularly like being spammed and phished to death).
There is no SP2 for Vista, let alone SP3. If you are running XP, this really isn't the forum for you. If you are running Vista, you better check your Service Pack level.
Screen shots would be wonderful as we cannot come over to your living room to check your machine....
