    Hanna heres the problem
    My laptop is windows 7
    My pc is windows vista
    So how is me putting windows defender on a flash drive on my pc going to cure the problem on my laptop ?
    I installed the correct windows defender exe

    I clicked on it thats where it says the following

    "The ver of the file is not compatable with the ver of the windows your running check your computers system info to see whether u need an x86 (32bit) or x64(64bit)"

    Matt. you have to burn the downloaded file on a 64bit machine.
    We are triing to help you with our humble but trusted solutions.
    MBAM takes some time for the scan.
    If you are certain of your thinking, you can try, but poste back your results.

    Ive tried that solution u said but it dnt pin point where the trojon is
    I tried looking at the shell file it just says explorer.exe
    Cnt see where it is.

    Also tried running windows defender on my user account on laptop but as i just go to open it the pc lockup appears.

    Cnt get mc afee loaded up either

    Matt ;(
    The link I provided has an update at the bottom. This is the update information;

    "I fixed this by the following:"

    As well as starting explorer and regedit at the command line also start msconfig. Select the Startup tab. It can be difficult to spot although it stuck out for me as having an absurd name, there can be more than one entry. I think the best way is to look in the location column for any entry ending with something like a string of random letters/numbers.exe, mine also had a comma with a few letters after it as well to try to confuse me. Also look for any startup item with something similar in the 'Startup Item' column. Unticking these entries and applying should prevent it starting, and the entry should reveal the path to the .exe file which you can find and delete. Be warned you can stop important programs starting up, although they try to confuse you, mine was tagged as being from the IBM corporation!

    You can't just delete startup entries from msconfig. You have to use regedit. In regedit I found the offending entries here:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shared Tools \ MSConfig \ startupfolder

    but they might also be here:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shared Tools \ MSConfig \ startupreg
