Anyhow, there was so much damage I ended up doing a format and reinstall. Works every time.

If you sleep with fleas, does that make you a dog?
Anyway, if you find yourself stuck and your client or co-worker insists on retaining the operating system and file system, you must give these sets of instructions a try. I've repaired two co-workers systems so far.
First co-workers system was impossible to reach the desktop and run any type of program or command prompt. The virus reset the exporer and several processes every 5 seconds. Running thru this guide cleaned everything up nicely.
Second c0-worker was a porn king. Nuff said
