Sorry i know this post is long but i am trying to get as detailed as i can about my nightmare....i recently fell victim to a virus 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)I can boot up in safe mode no problem but the desktop icons don't come up so i have to enable explorer.exe through task manager. Did another repair of XP. 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 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. I have done all the steps in the MALWARE removal guide and it appears that the virus is gone but when i try to log in to windows i either get directly logged off or i get my wallpaper and nothing else not even ctrl-[bleep]-esc. works?? But can still get in to safe mode and have to enable explorer.exe through task manager.

I am so lost and frustrated at this point that i tried to backup all the important files and format/reinstall but for some reason my disk drives won't recognize any of the blank disks (is this because of safe mode?) i'm putting in. Also somehow i now have 4 different systems to log into when i start windows,

1.MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP home edition<--The current (system33)
C:\WINDOWS\System 32
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoftNT\current version\winlogon1
MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP<-----original XP that had the first virus

i will post the HJT log but will it be helpful if i post my MBAM log as well?
