thanks Sam. I am going to keep fighting it for a bit. I do have an image that is clean, but its 4 months old. I used it on saturday for a bit. Gotta clean up the website stuff, it was pre new site, so for a while my page went back to really old format, I think vws was still doing my ftp'ing, and all my lightning stuff striketar and wasp had not been installed yet. I have all my data backed up daily as well. So I can rebuild. I am just pissed that all my windows updates were good, and I thought I had a good and daily updated virus checker installed, and still got infected.
Last resort I will start from the old image. I kept meaning to go get some cheap HD's from tiger, but something always came up, would really rather use a month old image, then 4 months, if I have to go that route.
Wife "restricted" profile wont work, its actually the weather pc, so I need it to boot right into main profile so all the weather stuff starts auto. I will just ban her from it, we have a mac to play on (lots of news on mac's being targetted now but only with respect to pirated software), and she has a laptop for work, there is no reason for her to use my pc.
