Now it won't let me into the Registry to delete the keys u guys recommended. I don't have restore discs as well to restore the entire system

Did you get an error when trying to run "regedit"?

yup...wont open.

so no error? it simply just won't open?

Are you an admin on the machine?

Try starting up in Safe Mode. Start up your computer and keep hitting F8 until the boot menu starts up. Hit Safe Mode. Unplug your internet cable so the virus doesn't try anything funny, and then try running Malwarebytes' and/or your Anti-Virus. Then, try running regedit.

Wont allow me to go into safemode(F*)

When I try to import the reg script it says this:
"Cannot import C:\Users\bev\Desktop|trojan_fakerean_exe_fix.reg: The specified file is not a resistry script. You can only import binery registry files from within registry editor." Do I have the wrong spelling or something? Thanks again.

I've noticed that with 7 a lot. Right click and "edit" the .reg file. then copy it out into notepad... Then from start menu, just type in "regedit" then manually click down to the registry string you need to modify.

Run an antivirus boot disk that can scan before Windows boots and possibly clean the infection. Avira has one - its an iso.

Thanks to everyone! Working now!:)
