Win XP SP0
Compaq Presario Desktop 4410
Celeron 1.3 GHZ
128 MB ram
23 MB available, per Task Manager.
Owner had lots of popups & mis-directions.
Steps taken thus far:
scanned for spyware, malware - removed them. Thread posted at

Scanned for viri at Panda which found & fixed 7; Norton found none.
Virus logs show that the PC had been infected with KLEZ & W32.yaha.k .
sfc /scannow
I have set the bios to boot from the floppy disk drive, but it ignores the
setting, so I can't run a ram diagnostic, nor a hard drive diagnostic outside
of Windows.
Slow also in safe mode.
Your suggestions are welcome.
