DirectX 9.0c

Malaris
Just a quickie here guys; I'm running XP Home SP1 DirectX 9. 0b. Should I strive to get DX 9. 0c even though I don't have any games that require it. OR Should I wait until I buy a game that requires it, in which case it will come on the CD anyway?.

I downloaded SP2 and since then I cannot run Java. Any sites that require using Java Applets, all I get is a small box with a red cross in it in the upper left side. Any suggestions as to what to do.

XP Logon screen grey

Kmanfm
Running an XP system with several users. Very inconsistently after a user logs off, the logon screen will go grey and not accept any new user information. The only way to log back on again is to shut down/restart.

Qhosts virus variation removal technique

Ace
Wow, this is some great advise that could pretty much help me. But yesterday night, I shut down my computer and turned it back on today. Everything started up normally, except that msconfig message, but besides that, McAfee came up saying the Qhosts.

Serious Problem

HybridFreak
All right, I was running spybot search and destroy and got an error when I was cleaning so I decided to remove the registry entries manually and ended up deleting something I probably shouldn't have.

I've been seeing this problem on several forums (mostly dealing with WinXP) but as yet I've not seen a solution that corresponds to the problem I've been having. This is a problem I've been dealing with for the last couple of days and its starting to drive me up the wall.
