Cant even go to windows

Ok, my names Jason. At first, i couldn't access anti-virus websites, so i looked up the problem and found this site. I followed a thread and it said to download spybot. I did a scan and deleted the viruses. I rebooted my computer and now i cant even access windows. I'm doing this on my other computer. Please help me?

Re: Cant even go to windows

Could you please try the following:

1. Reboot and keep tapping the F8 key until the Windows Advanced Options screen appears.



2. From this screen move to the Last Known good Configuration (your most recent settings that worked) option using the arrow keys and press Enter.

3. If you are running other operating systems on your computer, use the ARROW keys to select Microsoft Windows Vista, and then press ENTER.

Wait till the process in competed and see if you can login to Windows now.

Re: Cant even go to windows

Download the trial version of ESET NOD32 from your machine or any other PC, install it and do a full system scan. It should get rid of the virus infections.

Re: Cant even go to windows

You should be able to do a scan with the built in database with out the updates. Did you install the ESET NOD32 Antivirus?

Also did you try using ComboFix to remove the infections?
