Hi;

Don't you have a boot-up-disk; if not search the web for (-hirems (I
think this is right)) boot-up-cd.

Kind Regards

D.G

Subject: FN-FORUM: Win XP Home Trashed?



Could someone steer me in the right direction. I have just used AVG to
remove 20+ viruses and Adaware to remove 100's of spyware thingies from
a an
XP Home machine. It boots quicker but when I log on to any account it
just
logs off again without giving me a chance to do anything.

I guess some malware program it was expecting to run is no longer there
and
so the logon process is failing because some key in the registry is
calling
for an .exe or .dll that's gone. I've tried to hack the registry via the
lan
but no success. Restore last known good does not work either. Is there
some
way I can stop the logon process in its tracks so I can fix it?

So what are my options - a repair install or rip the disk out, save the
data
and format/reinstall with Linux. At times like this is really hate
windoze
with avengance.

Ok rant over - any ideas?

Thanks

Ken
