Hmm, I did try to start-up in safe mode when I couldn't get my system to reboot. It froze with the same message on-screen. The message was alot bigger of course. I have yet to restart my PC because I am afraid it will be difficult once again to make it to desktop. It took a virtual act-of-congress to get to where I am right now. Currently, I am looking for a downloadable trojan-remover. I was hoping Symantec or someone would have a program to remove it. McAfee recognizes it as Druogna. It seems it isn't going to be very simple to remove. I have Restore disabled at the moment, but I am still weary of restarting. I know for a fact that my McAfee said it could not delete the Trojan so therefore I assume if I restart I will run into the same exact start-up issues again.
