Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove this bug.

I've Googled it, but the websites that I've arrived at are just out to set
anti-virus software. My PC is jammed packed with anti-viral software but it
didn't stop my present problem.

Who do I trust? It's a nightmare out there in virus land!

Ant ideas would be much appreciated.

MBAM will probably take care of it as long as it can run (some fake AV's
block MBAM). You can also try this one:

The free version of MBAM(MalwareBytes AntiMalware) or the free version on
SAS (SuperAntiSpyware) should do the job for you. If the malware won't let
the setup file (mbam-setup.exe) for MBAM run, change the name of the setup
file and then run it.
You can change it to something like warrensmith.exe and then run it.
MBAB can be found at malwarebytes.org:
http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebyt...4572.html?part=dl-10804572&subj=dl&tag=button

and SAS can be found at SuperAntiSpyware.com:
http://www.superantispyware.com/superantispywarefreevspro.html

Download the free versions, install, update and then run.

Well ... it's not a virus anyway.

You should supplement your pack of AV software with some antimalware
programs. MBAM and SAS are often recommended here.

There *are* viruses, but this isn't one of them.
Ant ideas would be much appreciated.

Hey folks, thanks for the help, much appreciated. I wish had of asked you
folks sooner. I clicked on Search&Destroy and it made a mess of the
registry, so I ended up with a login -logout loop.

I'm now following the instructions at http://thinkinginpixels.com/quick-
fixes/fix-windows-xp-log-onlog-off-loop/
in an effort at least get back into my system. Then I will follow your
instructions.

Wish me luck! I need it!

This might help

http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives...gistry-key-values-without-booting-in-windows/

The key
HKEY_USERS > Microsoft > Windows NT > CurrentVersion > Winlogon

That normally points to userinit.exe

was most likely changed by malware to point to an infected file, when
the file is removed without changing the registry entry you can't login.

If you have a seconf pc and can slave the drive and figure out the name
of the file that was removed copy userinit.exe to that file name which
might work without changing the registry, but you'll need to fix
registry once you do login.

Thanks again folks for the help. I finally finished it off with MalwareBytes
Antimalware.

All is well, apart from an error at bootup
Error Loading c\:windows\otejafabipere.dll
Any ideas?

TIA
