Is it really worth it to try to clean? Are you sure a nice clean re-install wouldn't be better? I always suggest people stay away from remediation because your only depending on tools and their signatures and trust me even the best AV doesn't have very good coverage. Most malware these days are also web based so they download newer versions from the web. So 1 piece of malware will usually result in 5-10 new pieces of malware downloaded.

Have a REALLY screwed up one. Spyware or something has basically locked out everything. While I did get the control panel back none of the applets run. gpedit.msc says file not found. can not manage users. Was able to fix this a little and it is better but some of this needs to be restored. I suspect a whole system restore is needed to be honest but I always respect a challenge. :-D Any suggestions will be helpful.
