I am running Vista Home Premium and have, apparently, been infected.

When I boot up I get a dialog box coming up saying that Windows cannot find a program to open 39f.tmp, which seems to be a virus indicator. Windows also reports that it is infected with Vundo.gen!R. I also get a dialog box up saying that google installer had stopped responding. After all of that I get a blue screen of shutdown with the Stop code of: 0x0000007e (0x00000005, 0x81c5e9fe, 0x859b3b5c, 0x859b38d8).

So, I downloaded Vundofix and Virtuomundobegone and ran them both. Neither of them found an infection.

I tried HiJackThis and super anti-malware but neither of these will run. There is a dialog that says super anti-malware stopped running unexpectedly, but hijackthis just does nothing.

I then tried to get to the kaspersky web site to use their online virus scan, but every site I try to get to leads to a yahoo search page or page cannot be displayed.

So, anything worth trying before I give up and re-install?
