    I'll fix them, once Jacee gives you a clean bill of health - there's no point in fixing them if they are only going to get wiped in the next reboot

    Jacee, what else do I need to do to confirm my system is clean?

    I'd like you to scan your machine with ESET OnlineScan
    1. Hold down Control and click on the following link to open ESET OnlineScan in a new window.
      ESET OnlineScan
    2. Click the button.
    3. For alternate browsers only: (Microsoft Internet Explorer users can skip these steps)
      1. Click on to download the ESET Smart Installer. Save it to your desktop.
      2. Double click on the icon on your desktop.
    4. Check
    5. Click the button.
    6. Accept any security warnings from your browser.
    7. Check
    8. Push the Start button.
    9. ESET will then download updates for itself, install itself, and begin scanning your computer. Please be patient as this can take some time.
    10. When the scan completes, push
    11. Push , and save the file to your desktop using a unique name, such as ESETScan. Include the contents of this report in your next reply.
    12. Push the button.
    13. Push

    ESET Scan has been run but it did not give me the option to perform steps 10, 11 or 12.


    I did a screenshot which shows that ESET found no threats. I have enclosed the screen shot as a Word document and a rar file.


    If I am needed to run the scan again let me know.

    Okey dokey - it's too late tonight, but I'll work up a registry patch for you in the morning.

    Cheers Noel. Will the Registry patch enable all services listed as unavailable or missing in my previous post?

    Should be able to fix all of them in one sweep if I get it right :) - then comes the hard bit of working out what else may have been affected.

    How do I know if other things have been affected?
