free on-line scan i use everyday for customers. run the scan, get rid of the detected threats then reboot. hopefully it solves the problem. enable system restore and set a new restore point.

Answer 2

If you are infected the virus or spyware may be blocking it. You have to be a administrator to restore you computer. Also you have to make sure the restore point you are picking is in bold.

Download, update and run Spybot---http://www.safer-networking.org/ . Don't forget to use the Immunize feature.

Download, update and run Adaware---http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/products/select_your_product.php

Download SpywareBlaster---http://majorgeeks.com/download2859.html

SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed.

It's main features include:
- Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
- Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
- Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.

Update and run your anti-virus program. Don't have one? You can do a free online scan at http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

As a last resort since it is so powerful you can try...

Download HijackThis---http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/programs.php#hijackthis. Run and Save a Log. When you log comes up copy and paste the entire log at http://www.hijackthis.de/ . Analyze your results. You will then get a screen that will tell you if you have any nasty stuff in your computer. Follow instructions to deal with any nasties. CAUTION: This is a very powerful tool. Be careful.
