Get Spybot search and destroy - run it in safe move.

If you cannot get your machine to bootup and stay up for Spybot to do its work then you should put your infected HDD in another PC and run Spybot from there.

Uhhmm... put it in another PC should rather read - slave your hard disk to another PC and try and clean it from there.

doesn't matter how you spell it, it did what some dude wanted it to do.

Thanks for advice from bikerza, I manage to save most data. "My music" folder gone!

In the end had to format.
