VIRUS CREATED PROBLEMS

I was infected with a virus. It has since been removed. However, my desktop
now acts different. The start button bottom left no longer has programs or
log off tabs. My computer no longer lists "C" drive. I now have a white box
in the upper left of the desktop that appears to be a list of my network
places. Although I am listed as the Administrator, I cannot access the
properties of the desktop. I get a message that states that the administrator
has restricted access. I can set up another user and assign it as
administrator. However, my current user has lists and links(E-mail ) etc that
I do not want to take the time to recreate. Is there a way to set up a new
user and copy the preference etc from an old user. I am at a loss.
