What the title says.


Long story short, I caught the rogue program AntiSpywire XP 2012, so I had to remove it manually. When I was removing processes from the Task Manager, I didn't exactly know what the virus process thing looked like, so I may have accidentally ended that process.

Can't run anything without having the program type to open it with, so I can basically only use Internet, iTunes, and anything else that came with an .exe file of its own.

Can't run Control Panel, or anything else of that sort of thing.

Ah, I know what might be the problem, that Windows program most likely carried a trojan virus known as "SirCam" or "Pretty Park" which generally blocks .exe files and messes up the registry.

I'd suggest you take a look at THIS and THIS

Basically it will fix the errors that the virus programmed the PC.

This exact thing happened to me on Windows 7! Been trying to fix it forever! Only thing I can do is boot FireFox by going into documents and typing a URL.
