This morning, I seemed to have visited an unsavory site, or something, as it put a virus on my computer. I thought my anti-virus was running, but apparently not/it wasn't updated. (I'm using ETrust Antivirus, by the way) But anyways. First it gave me a ton of spyware, which I tried to get rid of with adaware and spybot, which got rid of some, but my start page in internet explorer would change to the same thing everytime, and also I would be doing something in a window and it would just randomly close, or switch to some ad, and then immediately close. I ran AdAware, Spybot, and Etrust antivirus. Got rid of all the spyware, Etrust came up with a virus named "counter.cab" which I got rid of.
I left for a while, came back, restarted my computer and it wouldn't go. It would get to the Welcome screen, and then load the desktop picture, and wouldn't do anything else. It will work when I put it into safe mode, which is what I'm in now (safe mode with networking) and I have ran my antivirus program, and there are no viruses present, just a bunch of files with "Open Error". I did an internet search on this, and it didn't seem to be like a big deal, but maybe it is. This is the only cause I can see why it wouldnt' be working, but maybe you guys can help me out.
So basically, my computer wont start in normal mode, it will load the desktop picture and wont do anything else, but I can run it in Safe mode. What should I do?
