Had a virus, turned off system restore on all drives, started in safe mode, ran norton ... now I can't get out of safe mode. At startup, pressed F8 and clicked option to start normally but just goes back into safe mode....

please help anyone

Did you use this method to start in safe mode
To configure the System Configuration Utility to start the computer in Safe
mode:
1. Close all open programs.
2. Click Start, and then click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
3. Type msconfig and then click OK.
4. The System Configuration Utility appears. Check the "/SAFEBOOT" option, and
then click OK.
5. You then see the prompt to restart the computer. Click Restart.
The computer restarts in Safe mode. (This can take several minutes.)
When you finish troubleshooting (in Safe mode) repeat these steps, but in step
4, uncheck "/SAFEBOOT," and then close all programs and restart the computer as
you normally would.

If you did read the last part.............................
