I have a new computer, i had to reinstall windows because of Trojan, and now it all looks older?

What the hell did he do to it?

The browser looks older, the player, i downloaded Google earth again and it doesn't have a street view, the downloading takes much longer, it's suppose to be better and not worst.I have a new computer, i had to reinstall windows because of Trojan, and now it all looks older?
From this and your previous questions, I'd say it's time for you to take a basic computer and internet course.
Reinstalling windows puts earlier versions of programs on your computer. You'll have to update them by downloading new versions of the programs you want to update.



Search Google for the names of the programs that don't look right.



Also, do a windows update. (There should be a link to Windows Update in the start menu.)I have a new computer, i had to reinstall windows because of Trojan, and now it all looks older?
I'm with Dr Dave; you're in way over your head.

These Windows equipped machines are not something you buy, take home and plug 'em in, and all the world's at your fingertips (contrary to what you see in the commercials).

Even when they work right, they are highly complicated; and when you throw into the mix millions of bad guys try to f--k them up, it's not a playground for the un-educated.

Sounds like you installed an old version of Windows XP (SP0)??????



You need to go to Windows update (Tools %26gt; Windows update) and update your machine to Service Pack 3 (SP3).



Keep going back to Windows update even when you think you are done. You have almost 10 years of updating to catch up with.



A un-updated version of XP is very insecure and is a virus and malware magnet.
