My laptop is infected with worm.win32.netsky. It hijacked my desktop background, locks me out of task manager. Spybot seemed to get rid of it but it comes back when I reboot and enter my XP login password. I was attempting to follow the cleaning guide, but after TFC.exe ran, it rebooted and when I tried to log into my XP login, within a second i'm logged out! I have a T41 thinkpad so I am able to boot up and access the internet using Opera browser in the IBM rescue and revovery section. Is there a fix or do I have to re-install...I hope someone can help. Thanks
