    ok if My limited Coding windows registry knowledge allowed me to understand things right,

    they are removing the TCP/IP setting thus disabling the network/internet
    then removing windows firewall
    then removing the system services app, (And you wonder why it wont boot)
    and something else I'm not sure about

    there is a link to a M$ win server 2003 patch and to some repair tool !!!!

    If I understood things right I agree with you JB, steer well clear, better advice would be to format and install,

    If I understood things wrong, every possibility will some one post more accurately thanks ;)

    It's no good Jelly-Bean. Whenever I see something like this, I just have to visit the site. It's like a 'Wet Paint - Do not touch' sign. Just irresistible! :)

    Laughs at wellies.

    I must say some quick fixes do work.

    Its like the "Personal av" that people install warning them they have a multitude of trojans and infections.

    When they run there own AntiVirus program no viruses showup.

    I find running SuperAntiSpy,CCleaner then Malwarebytes fixes the issue and no key reg of windows is deleted.

    But again unless you know what you are doing there could be other issues to deal with.Hence you must be fully aware of what you are doing.
