Ok sorry i took so long in my response. Well the msconfig was my first
tactic, which I ran it again just thinking maybe I missed something,
but I unchecked everything so its not starting up. Then I ran autoruns
yesterday, but ran it again and so far everything seems to be in the
right place. I erased everything that I felt was unsafe.
Here is the real headache, she really does have a lot of misc virus's
running so its hard to determine exactly where these iexplores are
coming from. Today what I will do is download the mircrosoft removal
tool that nass suggested (thats btw) and see where that takes me. Again
I rather not reformat this because I may come to this problem down the
road and I rather have some knowledge in how to remove it instead of
doing the obvious which would be to reformat it.
I will write back tonight and tell you guys where I am at =)
thanks again to everyone who quickly responded if this all works I will
owe you guys a six pack each =)

said in Both Safe Mode and Normal Mode but first Safe mode as Some viruses

Ok so my friend asked me to look at her computer to see if I could
repair it, well turns out she had a lot of viruses on it, some really
nothing some meduim well there is 2 iexplore.exe's running in
taskmanager and I can't stop the process's. I looked everywhere to find
help and so far I got nowhere.
I ran hijack this and came back with a couple of files such as
"Polymorph.dll, dvb03a.dll" that I tried to delete them but they come
back, and not do they only come back I cant find them in the location
hijack this says they are at.
Has anyone had this problem with the iexplore before? Again I tried
autoruns, hijack this, cwshredder, norton anti-virus, a-squared with no
results. I really don't want to reformat the computer. So any advice??
Hi Hank,
To disable the runing apps, do the following open the RUN command and Type:
msconfig then click Ok and on the Start up Tab click on it and uncheck any
refrence for iexplorer.exe [ but not for explorer.exe] and reboot your
machine.
Go to this link and download the removal tools from here:

Please note turn OFF system Restore on your computer.
I think there is only one iexplorer.exe which in C:\program files\Internet
Explorer\iexplorer.exe if it in another path it should be deleted.
If you can't delete the file try download this cleaner from here:

HTH
please write back your findings
