i deleted system32.exe

[06ddeleh]

I had a virus and the program i used to remove it asked
me if i wanted to restore the files or delete them. I
just figured that by hitting delete it would delete the
virus only. But now everytime i log onto my computer it
gives an error message about not being able to locate
system32.exe. i did not have system restore active
previous to this so i am wondering if there is a quick
fix or am i doomed to a reformat? P.S please email me if
you can about this topic.... (e-mail address removed)12.wi.us

You may need to remove the system32.exe reference from startup.
