I have a Win98SE box that was attacked by the Lovebug virus. The machine has been cleaned and is virus free. One problem still remains. I cannot add any printers to the printers folder. Either it will hang and freeze while attempting to add a printer or it will eventually let me add a Network Printer but will tell me it is off line and that I cannot use the printer until is becomes available. Is my only option an OS reinstall?
Few facts
The printer is online and available.
Adding a slave printer is not an option due to department rules.
98SEsr1 was added.
LPT port was removed and added back.
File Print sharing is enabled.
PC is online and network is working properly.
Please Help.
