Started 24hours ago having downloaded a few things (now deleted). If i try to run my ocmputer it crashes the desktop (no icons usable), doesnt load my computer and makes the startbar unuseable.

Any open programs continue to function - sparodically - lots of crashes.
Have run 3 different antiviruses, 4 different spyware programs, picked up a few bits and bobs but nothing serious and nothing that has fixed it.

Ive come to a dead end im afraid so if anyones got any ideas ( my first feeling was AceBoT as i had a Dr Watsons Postmorton error when it First started, only happened once, but i havenmt found any evidence for AceBot or any other virus that i can find)

Find below my latest HJijackthis report, ive run through it myself with my limit =ed knowledge and see nothing, wondering if any of you guys havea ny idea.

Thanks in advance, any help is much appreicated before i do a full format:

The log appears clean. It could be your shell32.dll with problems - try going Start, run, type:
sfc /scannow -and press Enter, you will probably need your installation CD. If that does not do the job then a windows Repair using that CD would be my next call [you bypass Recovery Console and enter Setup, identify the OS installation and select to repair it]. Your files are not touched.
