Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

My shortcuts have stopped working since this morning when my PC did its normal auto shutoff after completing 5 torrent downloads which were just 4 .avi videos and one adaware 1.06r1 since I started up my this morning none of my normal RUN items started up by themselves and all of my quick start/programs icons are not working. Also all of my .exe files were not working by I fixed that issue with this fix:

"If you're unable to launch Regedit.exe even from Command Prompt, try this:
copy regedit.exe regedit.com
regedit.com" I ran it thorugh cmd prompt with alt+ctrl+del while holding ctrl key and choosing run new task."

Now my last issue is no shortcuts even creating a new one, I just get a blank useless .INK file or LNK file cannot be opened, and when I logon at start up a blank window opens before the logon window, here is what it looks like now along with my hijackthis logs and ewido report:

Re: Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

you have no obvious adware/spyware on your system so I am assuming you have either a corrupt registry or their are some corrupt DLL files wthin windows.
2 things u can do.
System restore
or a
Repair installation

Both of these have a good chance of fixing the issue with minimum heartache.

Re: Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

Yea I tried a system restore, so a repair wit the windows xp cd is my only option right?

Re: Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

* Download the XP .exe Registry fix file by right-clicking on xp_exe_fix.reg and choosing "Save link as..." or "Save target as..." from the resulting pop-up menu.

* Save the file to your desktop.

* Double-click the file you saved, and when it asks if you want to merge with the registry, click YES.

*Reboot your computer; your shortcut functionality should be returned to normal.

Re: Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

The file wouldnt just double click I had to do the trick of holding the ctrl key while clicking "new task (run)" in the task manager then typing regedit.com in the command window to get the regedit to come up. Did safe mode scans deleted a few things here is my hijackthis file now:

Re: Shortcuts, new and old, stopped working...
 

Does that mean that you ended up having to edit the Registry manually? Just curious.
