I have resolved the original problem by booting from a CD and using network connection to check the hard disk with Malwarebyets and AVG.
Unfortunately I probably removed critical data from the computer and it couldn't start windows properly so I decided to backup the value data and start over by formatting the hard drive and reinstall windows.

Thanks for your concern,
Dotan
