I may have spyware, or I deleted some registery files when I ran ad-aware
after downloading it from download.com. I rebooted the machine. It comes to
the login page, and instructs me to click the login of my choice to continue,
and the other option is to shut down the computer. The problem is that there
is no login to click.
 I boot to windows, I am asked to login, but there isn't a login window for
the 4 users of this machine.

I tried booting using the os disc, which kind of get you to dos. Then I ran
some userint .exe in the windows directory when in dos. But I couldn't get
windows to start.

Any ideas before I reformat?

Thanks
