And had your Panda subscription expired before you installed TMIS? I
suspect it had.
In any event, if the machine hasn't been fully patched since Mar-08...
Backup your personal data, then do a format & clean install of Windows.
Please note that a Repair Install (AKA in-place upgrade) will NOT fix this!
After the clean install, you'll have the equivalent of a "new computer" so
take care of everything on the following page before otherwise connecting
the machine to the internet or a network and before using a USB key that
isn't brand-new or hasn't been freshly formatted:

If the clean install leaves you with WinXP (no Service Packs), here's how to
get it fully patched:

If the clean install leaves you with WinXP SP1 or SP2, here's how to get it
fully patched:
