A friend's computer has been infected by several viruses and trojans. I'm
trying to help them clean up the mess. The common anti-virus were
unsucessful because the viruses kept them from from deleting or even seeing
some files.

I removed their hard drive and placed it into my machine, being bery
careful not to boot from it or run ANY code from it. I have been
successfull in deleting and quarantining the files and now I need to do
some repair work in the registry.

Is there a program available which will let me edit the registry on their
drive while it is still in my machine?

Thanks.
