Well, it is really coming down to a complete start over situation. Saving as many user files as I can before the complete makeover of the computer. But, I did find that the RECYCLER worm was at least one of the problems. This worm is generally transmitted by USB device. The kids bring stuff home from school on USB drives, and one of those must have been infected. The thing creates a folder called RECYCLER in the root of the drive. Still, that was not everything. Vundo was also a culprit, as was whatever PUM.Disabled.SecurityCenter is. So, today, we reconstruct that computer from the ground up. Thanks for all the suggestions and guidance. I really appreciate it.
