I downloaded a 7-zip file from CNET and it didn't do what I wanted and so I uninstalled it. However, all the "exe" files on the computer are now not accessible. I can get to Firefox thru a "shortcut" on my desktop for the local newspaper. The e-mail is working thru my yahoo account only. I purchased PC MightyMax and that didn't do anything for me. I've tried to restore the computer to yesterday or earlier and the restore window will not come up either.

In some cases, all EXEs being broken can indicate a malware infection.

Do you get a specific error message when you try to start a program?

I'm concerned that PC MightyMax itself might be an infection you need to remove, but let's come back to that issue.

Since I had to call my IT guy and get him to come pick the computer up I will be uninstalling the PC MightyMax and asking for a refund. You just confirmed my suspicions, thank you.
