Yesterday morning I booted my laptop and it stopped with the following message "lsass.exe object not found"
When I click OK the laptop reboots and stops at the same place.
Safe mode stops at the same point.
Am not interested in reformatting.
Any suggestions?

Jump to PostYour computer is infected with the Sasser Virus. Here's a removal tool you can put on a floppy disk and run from there:

After that you should follow the instructions …
Jump to PostCheers haha good luck buddy who knows what else it is infected with. Also run some kind of Anti Virus software to see if you have anything else.
Jump to PostThe instructions for that utility include a description of how to load it onto a floppy disk, boot into DOS from floppy, and clean the system from the command prompt.
I've used the utility successfully in that exact fashion.
Jump to PostIf you can't boot into Windows because of LSASS.exe, you might just want to reconsider getting all of your data off of the drive and reinstalling Windows.
You can use the Windows disc to reinstall the file, or the files associated with it, but I've never had any luck. …
