Jack,
Thanks for the response. Unable to start on Safe Mode. Typing attrib /s wink*.*
at the a: prompt returns a 'File Not Found - wink*.*' message. Typed it at C: didn't
do anything. Tried to start windows by typing Win at prompt returned this message.."While
initializing device IFSMGR..The Microsoft Installable File System Mgr cannot fine
helper driver. Ensure IFSHLP.SYS is installed...System halted." Looks like Klez already
won. I may need to reformat my drive. Thanks again. Enrique
