MSDT.exe Corrupt file virus? And explorer not working right
Hallo, I keep getting a 'msdt.exe file is corrupt' message in my system tray. I looked this up
on google, and this came up as a virus/worm of some sort. Most post's were from 2009
though...Also, it seems it has messed up my explorer too, as I can't change some system settings
or anything either. Even my anti-virus can't get to the virus , the location it's in I can't get
to either. I have uploaded some pictures to tinypic to show you this.
1. Internet not working - MSDT.exe virus in tray.

3. End of SFC/Scannow ( it was suggested to do this on a site I found while searching up msdt.exe )

6. Right clicking on system icon brings up box saying that I'm not admin when I am?

7. Some examples of not being able to change explorer settings. I used a file from this site, small icons for taskbar.reg. I also tryed it as it is done usually as shown in this picture, but that also does nothing.

8. Another explorer setting I can't change, and it reverts back to what it was without change after I close the box. ( In this one 'show hidden files and folders' )

9. Can't add new keys to explorer part of registry.

How do I fix this without re-installing windows or anything?
Thanks.
