| Hi,
|
| I'm pretty sure I have the worm. I have Win XP, I
| downloaded the patch and the removal tool but I didn't
| disable the System Restore and I thing the worm was
| restored, anyhow, at the moment I can't even open Windows,
| I turn the computer on, the Windows screen appears after
| which everything turns black, nothing happens after. I
| think I'm in big trouble. Dose anybody know if it is still
| possible to recover my files and how? Please help!!! TY
| alina
