My friend had some nasty viruses on her computer, including the Trojan virus. I managed to install an anti-virus to remove the viruses, but I still can't get to the Control Panel to activate the firewall. The links for the Control Panel are gone and when I click "Run" and type in "Control Panel" I get the following message: This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." WE DON'T HAVE A SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR! Can you please help me find a way to get to the control panel? Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sheala

Hi and welcome to Daniweb forums :).

Download HijackThis from here. Download it to your desktop and NOT a temporary folder.
Start HJT & press the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. When the scan is finished a window will pop up giving you the option of where to save it. Save it to desktop where it is easy to access. Open the log file and copy the entire contents of the file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is necessary for the running of your system.

This is my logfile from HiJackThis. I was told to run a scan and copy my logfile because my computer had some viruses and I couldn't remove them all.

You have a pile of rubbish on there :(.

Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE

  • Save it to your Desktop
  • Physically disconnect from the internet.
  • Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields)
  • Click on your START button and choose Run. Then copy/paste the entire content of the following quotebox (Including the "" marks and the Symbols) into the run box.

    "%userprofile%\desktop\ComboFix.exe" /KillAll

    [IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y153/crunchie1/RunBox_KillAll.jpg[/IMG]

  • Click OK and this will start ComboFix.
  • When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to a Notepad File and include it in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log.

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

* Re-enable all the programs that were disabled prior to the running of ComboFix.

* Post the following logs/Reports:


  • ComboFix.txt
