It makes no difference if I am in safe mode.

Try starting in safe mode.

Win XP Home
version 2002 SP1
When trying to remove spyware/viruses
I cannot disable System restore
It gives the following message:

System Restore encountered an error trying to enable/disable one or more

drives. Please restart your machine and try again.
This does not help.
There are 5 accounts, all with Administrator rights, and an Administrator

account.
It does not matter which account I use or if I am in safe mode.

Also this may be related:
If I try to use windows update I get the following...

The website comes up but shows a message:
The website has encountered a problem and can not display the page you are
trying to view.

Also:
I can not use defrag or get into computer management:
I get the message... MMC can not open the file... (It then fills in the

appropriate file name.)
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was

created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have

sufficent access rights to the file.

These files all exist and all accounts have Administrator rights.

Any ideas?
Thanks
