You need to make repairs by booting into Safe mode or booting from CD. First download the following (if the virus is blocking your internet, you may have to download these on another machine and burn to CD or copy to a USB memory stick) Malwarebytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php Superantispyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/superantispywarefreevspro.html CCleaner (cleans out caches) http://www.ccleaner.com Avast! 4 Home: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html Now, start the machine in Safe Mode (hit the F8 function key as the machine boots up, and choose Safe mode) Turn off System Restore on your machine, but only until you get this fixed - many of these trojans get copied into the System Restore files, which anti-virus programs aren't allowed to touch and the viruses could reinstall themselves from there. My Computer > Properties > System Restore. Then run Malwarebytes, and clean everything it says Then run Superantispyware Then run Avast - If a virus infection is persistent, use Avast to do a boot-scan - click on "schedule boot-scan" and restart the computer Then run CCleaner Then turn System Restore back on. Now install the antivirus program and antispyware program of your choice to do continuous scanning, and make sure you keep it up to date. Always keep your Windows, web browser and Java software up to date - frequent patches are released to plug security holes. http://www.pcworld.com/article/149298/10_quick_fixes_for_the_worst_security_nightmares.html If you absolutely cannot boot even in Safe mode, then you may have to configure a universal boot CD, Avast has a preconfigured one you can buy from their site ($400) , http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_bart_cd.html or google Universal Boot Cd http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ or BART CD http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/
