Hi

Sounds more like a blaster worm then a Palace problem can you give more details about your operating system and if this happens without Palace?

[Lonelykid]

Yeah, first check your system for any SpyBots, Trojans, this or that. Then try it. They have good downloads at downloads.com :)

[xbabiikayxo]

but how do i chek for trojans??? and it only does that with palace

[maarten]

Then it might be Palace related but we still need info on your computer, operating system etc.

Strange.. I remember a long time ago, every time I entered this room on Shinra, my computer would restart by itself. It's only for palace, eh? Hmm. Try getting a new .ini file, maybe that'll work. In other cases, go to download.com and download trojan-removing software, ad-removing, and things like that. Even after that doesn't work, use another client such as Phalanx or Legal XPalace.

Ok there are a couple of things you might want to try:

First of all try this link and do a sasser worm check

And run Stinger as well it will do a deep scan of your system for trojans etc. Make sure you add any disks that are missing in the list:

Then you might want to take alook at this Virus scanner solution from bitdefender, its very modern and clever. It also has an excellent FREE edition:

Before you do anything after this check your system for spyware. Get Ad aware from Lavasoft:

Just use the free edition and make sure you update it with the internet link to get the latest check file.

And for the final touch: get a good firewall to make sure this never happens. Personally I would recommend Zonealarm Pro but if you can't afford it the Zone Alarm free version is excellent to.

As for the Palace client, just stick to the basic Palace client you can get on this site or thepalace.com. Windows XP has an option you should turn on: find the palace.exe file, its names either thepalace.exe or palace32.exe. Right click and select the properties option.

In properties you can set "compatebility mode" set this to Windows 2000 this will make your Palace client behave a bit mre under windows XP.
