i recently fell victim to a virus when i absentmindedly downloaded a torrent and didn't scan it for any viruses. So i ran AVG and had many issues and it seemed that Avast couldn't get the virus off my pc. after lots of searching i finally realized that some of the files in Avast were corrupted by the virus so i uninstalled Avast and ran the XP fix and it did fix some of the problems that were caused by the corrupted AV but not all. I reinstalled Avast ran the AV again and this time it fixed the virus problem (i think) but i can't log onto my account unless it's in safe mode. I tried to log on, then a flash of my wallpaper and then immediately logged off saying that it was saving my settings then back to the welcome screen. Same problem in my girlfriends user account as well. I can boot up in safe mode no problem and have attempted to do all of the steps that were outlined in a post on how to repair XP using my XP disk. Well at the last part of the installation now i get two error codes......

C:\windows\system 33\system 32\inetcomm.dll may not have been installed or is corrupted
C:\program files\outlook express\msoe.dll may not have been installed or is corrupted

the question i have is are these two errors the only things that are keeping me from being able to log into my computer or do i have a bigger problem?
the reason for the system 33 is because about 4 months ago we had another virus (not my fault this time) and a friend helped me create system 33 and then just imported files over from system 32. I hope that makes sense as i am fairly noob at things like this but am not totally tech inept. i am running windows xp sp.2 on a dell dimension 4500
