    I was using emule. Downloaded a file and when i clicked it the screen blacked out and when it resumed, NOD32 was disabled and the virus had taken over.
    I am unable to install any other antivirus as during installation it said, unable to find a particular file and hence installation aborted. ntoskrnl was blinking when seen in Windows explorer. The windows were blinking and losing focus every 5 seconds.
    Please help me out, i am new to all this.
    Cheers

    hi, thanx for your reply
    NOD32 is not at all working. Further i did an online scan with Trend Micro, Symantec, but to no avail.
    I tried to install another AV (AntiVir) but it was not installing.
    I tried to run Autopatcher but it was giving an error.
    There is nothing that i was able to do. Even the NOD32 re-installation was not working.
    Please help me.

    Hello.

    If it's not a problem I would suggest to repair Your Windows installation. Believe me but sometimes it's better to do this then trying to figure out how to solve the problems like this. Note that if You decide to repair Your windows istallation all documents will be saved. You will not loose anything.

    This is my suggestion.

    If you do try to do a Windows Repair - Be carefull. The windows repair will delete all your system files and try to reinstall them. You only have ONE, yes ONE chance to do this. I would recommend you back up any documents or files you find to be important.

    Slave drive to another computer that's windows updated and has a good antivirus on it. Clean, then attempt repair. I'd be wary about trying to reinstall windows on an infected machine. And learn lesson about using P2P stuff.

    This is the right way , I second this advise . It is too risky to perform repair on already infected computer .

    If you cannot put the hard disk drive on another computer , you can use bootable CD bundled with some applications and scan/clean. In case this sounds too unfamiliar , contact well educated IT for help
