8 1/2 hours of virus/spyware/adware removal!
I'm exhausted.
Though the first 5.5 hours was trying to figure how to get 1 of the viruses off that kept me from installing a virus scanner, opening task manager, or opening regedit. It was difficult figuring out how to get something out of the register without using regedit.
Anyway, I learned something new, and wanted to share.
It is rather simple, but if you try to open regedit, and it wont let you. Rename it. Yep, that was all it took. The virus didn't look at the footprint of the file, it looked at the filename in the process list.
