Hello,

If you are running XP, you need to use the restoration utility to be able to make changes, restore to an earlier point.

Remove the following registry entries.:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Tok-Cirrhatus
[user's folder]\Local Settings\Application Data\smss.exe

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Bron-Spizaetus
[user's folder]\ShellNew\sempalong.exe

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Shell
Explorer.exe "[Windows's folder]\eksplorasi.exe"

Hope this helps,

Marco
