Every time I try to open these programs they just close immediately. I have seen similar problems on this forum but none seem to match mine. Here is my HijackThis log:

Hi there!

That's a symptom of the SPYBOT worm.

See the thread at the top of the page for removal instructions.

Also, after you have that removed, go to HouseCall and run a complete system scan for any more vuris activity on your system.

Good Luck!

Well this is interesting. I was doing what you told me too and was on the update virus definitions step and had to restart. After the computer restarted task manager, msconfig, and regedit work fine now.

Should i still do what you said to?

Also, motherboard are you telling me to fix those files?

Thanks.

edit I see your antivirus has done the work for you. Make sure the items below no longer appear in HijackThis and you should be good to go....

In order to fix the Task Manager/Msconfig problems you will need to shut down completely, then wait a few seconds and on restart promptly press the f8 key to access the Boot Menu.

Select Safe Mode.

1 -- In Safe Mode do one of two things, either to delete this file:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\VYISYTIPAL.EXE

either run Explorer and find it manually and delete it, or run cmd and in the Command Console enter EXACTLY:

del C:\WINDOWS\System32\VYISYTIPAL.EXE

you MUST get the spelling right.

2 -- Run HijackThis and check and "fix" the following two entries:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MSConfig] VYISYTIPAL.EXE

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [MSConfig] VYISYTIPAL.EXE

3 -- run Explorer and navigate to:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

and delete:

webdav.exe

Motherboard, VYISYTIPAL.EXE is a randomized name, a technique commonly used to evade detection; when you see something like that it is inherently suspicious. When you see it in conjunction with this type of issue and running under the moniker "msconfig" it is a dead give away.

Good to see this has been resolved easily.
