Quoting myself from previous message: "I did write that command and
once it was run I got the message "DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in
shell32.dll succeeded."

So I ran the command you told me to and it ran successfully.
Unfortunately, it did nothing advantageous to my system, not at least
to my problem.

Regarding your query, msconfig seems to be suffering from the same
sickness. Interestingly, ipconfig works fine, so does Task Manager.
Event viewer works fine. Services.msc too.

Regedit and msconfig don't seem to be working at all. I can see
regedit in the system32 folder interestingly, but clicking on it gives
me the message "file not found"

Additionally, clicking on my local drive (I got a single partition, C
and E). Clicking on E takes me to the "choose the program to open
this file with..." message. Right clicking E and exploring it works
just fine.

Like I said earlier, this happened after my antispyware cleaned a
trojan.

Thanks for the answers. Expecting more though.


It seems there is still a residual from that malware infection. Did you go through the link Gerry provided which is quite extensive, and the links I gave you for malware removal? Removing the malware is one thing, fixing the damage is a whole different story.
