indian blues, thx so much for u scouting out a cure for my virus dilemna, i thought that link would have helped me, but since i fiddled around with the virus manually it was not detectable anymore by that removal tool, so i have no other choice but to reformat my harddrive. i got that virus when i was looking for a serial crack code for a certain program and stumbled on a website that infected me with that bug, and to top it off, it was a favor for a friend, and it got me into this mess, lol, well its a tip 4 the future, don't go to crack sites that give u codes, they just mess things up even more
