I was surfing (with my Panda antivirus and firewall on) and suddenly got attacked. I lost access to over 400,000 files, had the statement "virus alert" added to all my incoming and outgoing emails and showing alongside the time in my toolbar. After following the instructions my neice sent me before posting this thread, I have less problems. Before I did the cleanups, I only had a few icons on the start menu (no "My Computer", "Search", "Control Panel", or "other programs". The only thing I can't seem to do is include the "uninstall list". During the cleaning, the only problem I encountered was when running the "Microsoft WIndows Malicious Software Removal Tool". The computer rebooted and said that I had just recovered from a vicious attack on Windows. I was able to complete this phase in the "Safe Mode". I am now going to attempt to put the logs in this thread, but I have never done this before. I know haw to attach files to emails. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
