At first when i saved combo fix i ACCIDENTALLY saved combofix not to my desktop but to whereever it saved it and now after combofix ran last night and I got on to post the combofix log and now I cant do anything on my computer such as open any system, internet explorer, skype, yahoo, notepad, system restore.
I ran combo fix and got an error on my computer,
C:\program files(x86)\internet explorer\iexplore.exe
illegal Operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion.
(click ok or x it out)
another box opens:
Can't open this item
it might have been moved, renamed or deleted. Don you want to removes this item?
same things come for Skype, Yahoo Messenger, and any other program on my computer.
I cant even restore my computer. It says thats marked for deletion!!!!!!
