I'm afraid things are going from bad to worse.
None of the Microsoft programs appeared in the Add/remove list in control panel,
and I couldn't get IE6 to reinstall it kept coming up with an error message missing
a link. I tried to undo the last system restore to get back to the previous condition
and start again.
Unfortunately it didn't restore properly. Now when I select restore to an earlier
point or undo the last restore I get an error message: An error has occurred in this
dialog. Error 29 unspecified error. Another dialog box sits behind the first one:
Internet Explorer script error, an error has occurred in the script on this page.
I get a the same error when I open My Computer and double click on C: drive, although
I can see the files and folders.
When I open control panel the same error message comes up and the control panel is
completely empty.
When I open About Interner Explorer a similar error message comes up with error 84
unspecified error and the version is blank, Cipher Strength () and Product ID blank.
I ran msconfig, many items appeared to be missing from the list.
I ran Wintop & Hijack this, the following processes were running.
Running processes:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\KERNEL32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSGSRV32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\mmtask.tsk
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MPREXE.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\OSA.EXE
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\FINDFAST.EXE
C:\PROGRAM FILES\ULEAD SYSTEMS\ULEAD PHOTO EXPRESS 3.0 SE\CALCHECK.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\STIMON.EXE
C:\PROGRAM FILES\HJT\HIJACKTHIS.EXE
Prior to attempting to undo the restore, system scans with up to date Spybot, Adaware,
and Trendmicro house call where clean.
However I've just run another Hijack this auto-analysis from the site you recommended
which revealed 4 nasty items.
I would appreciate any help trying to recover this system.
