It will only start in Safe Mode. SUPERAntiSpyware will run in Safe Mode. I tried to uninstall it there but it does not show up in Add/Remove nor can I find and uninstall in SUPERAntiSpyware program files. I tried to reinstall but it says Administrative policies do not allow it in Safe Mode. Can I change that and if so how? Is there a better approach to fixing this?

Thanks,
Jeff

I'd try running chkdsk /r on the system...not sure why you got the BSOD.

Done any other malware scans?

Here's is how I got to this state: http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic107890.html

While I waited for a response I thought I would post here too. I am doing the vundo check at the moment.

BleepingComputer.com - Am I infected What do I do - http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum103.html

My suggestion is that you post to the above link, where dedicated assistance is available for malware issues.

The fact that you seem to have something preventing/interfering with installation of malware-defense programs...convinces me that this should be the suggested course of action for you.

If you go that route, please follow all procedures/guidelines for facilitating expeditious, accurate assistance.

I suspect that you're still infected also - and that's what's generating the crashes - although your Norton Antivirus could also be causing this.
I'll move this over to the Am I Infected forum for some more expert help from there.

The computer will constantly try to reboot after showing the startup Windows screen with the moving blue bar. It goes for a little bit and then reboots. I tried a repair from the Windows XP CD. Still the same. I probably should not have done that because I think it wants to continue with setup.

If I F8 and go to Safe Mode, I am pretty sure that it wants to do a Chkdsk /R after about an hour it reboots and if I F8 and Safe Mode it Says It cannot install in Safe Mode and the reboots return.

I went into the recovery console.

Did a fixmbr,
ATTRIB -H C:\\boot.ini
ATTRIB -S C:\\boot.ini
ATRIB -R C:\\boot.ini
del boot.ini
BOOTCFG /Rebuild
FIXBOOT

Still get the constant rebooting.
I even tried a boot floppy and still the same result.

I am thinking that I will put in a new drive.

Since I was considering a new drive, I decided to see if an new installation of Windows rather than a repair which kept giving me the rebooting. It turns out the new installation is proceeding.
