Default A series of problems with XP


I am experiencing a no. of problems with my system, think I have acquired a virus / spyware through the pen drive.

First of all my copy paste function is disabled,
task manager is disabled,
I get all kinds of errors when I open my office applications.
My XP interface has turned into a win 98 interface (even no tabs in taskbar)
And I cant do system restore.

I use
NOD32 antivirus
Uniblue antispyware

I had also spotted a file svchost.exe in my system32, which did not get detected by NOD32 but i was able to manually delete it.

but still all the problems persist.

Please help.

svchost.exe is a system file.

For sure looks like virus problem.
1) Turn off system restore.
2) Do full sysetm scan at some online scan website in "safe mode with networking ".

Hi This is Supriya Sakxena From Goa
According to my information your system is infected with viruses and specially spyware as well as malicious ware. This problem is quite normal with all pcs so I recommed you to use (Dr.Virus Software )Antivirus and anti spyware software which is available on
http://www2.drvi.com/ and which is a freeware. My friend Naushad too was experiencing the same problem so he downloaded and installed the same software and found fruitful and he also loaded (Pc-Clean) software which is also a freeware mainly used for cleaning harmfull adwares, anticode and adult themed codes.
