I'm supposed to put these lines into the window after you go into Start<Run and then enter cmd.......

sc stop image
sc delete image
sc stop MAPI
sc delete MAPI
exit

exit works but the rest of the lines do not..... I always get an error saying 'sc' is not a recognized internal or external command....... Can anyone help...... I'm trying to straighten this stuff out so I can get this pesky [bleep] virus off my computer for I leave tommorow

sc was introduced with XP. Its not there in Win2000.
U will have to do it manually with the "Registry Editor".
Open services.msc.
Stop the MAPI and Image Serivces.

Open regedit.
Goto: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
Delete the keys the MAPI and Image Keys (Folders).
