Have you tried a bootable AV disc? I know norton lets you boot from the cd to get round problems such as you've got dunno about the others though.

Oh hang on....havent thought of that.....ive got one lying about somewhere   Will give it a go....

Well did try it.....no virus found.....but then the cd is a few years old so not really suprising  

When i loaded the same cd onto another pc earlier.....it installed and then did nearly 20M of downloads to update itself.....so guess the cd is too old to do a boot and clean from it

More wine needed and let your finger relax..

Problem is, If you get it up and running to some sort of fashion, you will spend the next 8 hours sorting out crossed links/Missing links etc..Is it worth it.... :-/

Always willing to give sensible advice TD..

Next time put a banana skin behind your left ear and wear an open toe sandal on your right foot before booting up computer...Things will work ok then..

Have you tried System Restore? take it back to a previous working condition.

Every time my duaghters computer gets corrupted because of not listening..Fresh install...Lots of tears but next day she is over it..

Funny you should say that......he gave me 200 ciggies for sorting it out.....but they've nearly all gone

That's a lot of standing outside a pub
