To use the System Restore program on XP:

Start-->Programs-->Accessories-->System Tools-->System Restore

It will give you (2) options at the first screen:

- Restore computer to an earlier time
- Create a restore point

You will want to Restore your computer to an earlier point. Click the 'Next' button and it will give you a small calender. Some of the numbered days will be in bold. These show you have restore points on them. Just select the last known good restore point from when XP created one (or in some cases when the user created one) and that should fix you up.
