Help - My xp system is infected with all of the above. Somehow this
trojan horse got installed.

It has disabled my Task manager and regedit. My C drive is unreadable
in windows so my Symantec anti virus has no drive to scan. I can
however see the the C drive in DOS. But without regedit I don't know
have to seek and destroy this virus.
anyone please help.

Use my free Remove-it software, it will remove that malware from your
system. Download it here http://pcbutts1.com/downloads/tools/tools.htm

I would suggest you ignore anything associated with PCButts.
(There is a response to your post from Ms. L MS MVP, which is probably just
a new pseudonym for PCButts suggesting you visit the PCButts site.)

Check the following site for some useful information;

Go to safe mode, go to program files delete the xp antivirus folder. Go to
windows/system32/ and find ieupdates (show details, and sort by date, delete
any files also installed at same time as ieupdates), reboot computer.

That should get rid of it, but it is likely your computer is infected with
other things, go to superantispyware.com download their free edition, update
and disconnect off the internet. The repair options will allow you to
re-enable task manager, run a scan with super antispyware and delete
whatever it finds.

Looks like superanitspyware.com did it. Thanks so much! The other 2
replies did not help except pcbutts program was the only thing that
was able to reinable my Task Manager. Thank you pcbutts. My
daughter's computer was also infected today with Spymaxx. Which was
the same type of malware. superantispyware purged all of the trojans
and spyware as well. I'm so glad you answered my call for help as I
was just about to format and reinstall xp. Thanks again.

Your welcome, but the thanks should go to the developers of
superantispyware... An excellent programme.

Thank you for including the quote so that we know what you are
responding to.

The post you are responding to is a really old one. The web-to-usenet
"Techarena" forum that you are using often allows posters to look
foolish by leaving ancient posts lying around to respond to. You may
want to consider accessing usenet through NNTP client software (Outlook
Express or Windows Mail for instance).
