The computer is a Dell Inspiron 1521 with Vista Home Premium. It is my niece's computer. She was on Facebook and picked up some type of Rogue Antivirus. I think I was able to remove this by downloading Malwarebytes from another computer and installing it on hers. 10 items were removed with Malwarebytes. When I try to open up the various options in Network and Files Sharing nothing will open. I tried to clik on Diagnostic repair in Networks and File Sharing but nothiing happened. I am sort of stuck what to try next. Can any one offer any guidance.  Annie
