I followed your instructions, but now I can't get my computer in to
safemode. I was able to last night and after I selected windows xp
and hit enter this is what i got.
multi(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe. Can you
help me? Is there any other way to get into safe mode besides
tapping f8 key?

Hi FJM
Is better if you create a new message, don't post a question of
your own in response to another question.
From AndyM
Copy and Paste this to notepad and save it so you can still view if
needed as you will not be able to access the Internet in safe mode.
Use Smitrem, Ewido and finally Ccleaner to remove temp files
Download SmitRem
http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click counter/click.php?id=1
Save it to your desktop,Double click on the SmitRem.exe file and
extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.
Download Ewido Security Suite
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install
background guard" and "Install scan via context menu". Click on
update in the left menu, then click the Start update button. After
the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display
"Update successful") Exit Ewido. DO NOT scan yet.
Download Ccleaner (To Remove Temp and unused files from your
system)
http://download.ccleaner.com/ccdownload.asp
Install Then close
Now reboot to Safe Mode - Restart your computer and immediately
begin tapping the F8 key on your keyboard. If done right a Windows
Advanced Options menu will appear. Select the Safe Mode option and
press Enter.
To return to normal mode just restart your computer as you normally
would.
Run Smitrem :
Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to
start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your
drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system
is installed.
Run Ewido
Click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on
complete system scan. When ewido finds something, it will pop up a
notification. Select "clean" and check the boxes "Perform action
with all infections" and "Create encrypted backup" before clicking
on ok. When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report" from the
bottom of the screen and save it to your desktop incase you need
more help with this.
Run Ccleaner and press "Run Cleaner" then exit.
While still in safe mode reset the Internet Settings : Goto Start
Menu then Control Panel then to Internet Options, Click the
Programs Tab and press "Reset Web Settings" and include the
homepage then press Yes, Then goto the General Tab and enter the
homepage you want to use into the space provided and press Apply .
Then Reboot back to Normal Mode
Let us know if you have any problems
You will need to reload your wallpaper after this tool finishes,
Smitrem will reset it because Trojans related to this infection
will display a spyware warning as a desktop wallpaper which cannot
be removed, To change your wallpaper right click desktop and choose
properties, Set the Theme to XP if you are running XP then goto the
Desktop tab and choose your wallpaper
from there. While on the Desktop tab press 'Customize Desktop' then
the 'Web'
Tab, In the web pages box look for 'Security' or 'Security Info',
if its there then place a check next to it and press Delete then
press OK
Regards Engel
