      I see no other option, but paper, and pencil...or put it on one laptop screen, and work on the other one.

      Copy and paste it in a notepad file and save it to the desktop. You can then open and read it without connecting to the internet.

        Evil told you to copy my instructions to Notepad.
        You have to download the above tools from the internet.

                          Let's try to do it different way.
                          Download all programs on good computer, burn it to CD, and copy them to USB stick/memory card, and run them on bad computer.

                                  Is bad computer still in Safe Mode?

                                  Yes but just to make sure I wasn't crazy I put memory stick back in good computer the program fired right up.

                                  I tried opening superantivirus on bad computer in both mode's..   same error message every time

                                  "THE DRIVE OR NETWORK CONNECTION THAT THE SHORTCUT "BOOTSAFE.INK' REFERSE TO IS UNAVAILABLE. MAKE SURE THAT THE DISK IS PROPERLY INSERTED OR THE NETWORK RESOURCE IS AVAILABLE, AND THEN TRY AGAIN.

                                          I'm afraid, you're facing Windows reinstall.

                                          Transfer SDFix over and run it in Safe Mode. Post the log when complete.

                                          Download SDFix.exe and save it to your Desktop.

                                          Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
                                          (Drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix)

                                          Now then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:

                                          • Restart your computer
                                          • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
                                          • Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear;
                                          • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press Enter.
                                          • Choose your usual account.
                                          • Open the extracted SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
                                          • Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
                                          • It will remove any Trojan Services and Registry Entries that it finds then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
                                          • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
                                          • When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
                                          • Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt
                                            (Report.txt will also be copied to Clipboard).
                                          • Finally copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt in your next reply.
                                          If SDFix won't run or you get errors, follow the link for instructions on running SDFix. How to use SDFix

                                            I've still got a few more things to try unless you would rather just reinstall.

                                            Download Deckard's Association File Tool (DAFT) and save it to your desktop.
                                            • Rename daft.exe to daft.com and double click on it to run.
                                            • Read the disclaimer and click OK.
                                            • Click on the Scan button.
                                            • If it finds faulty file associations, they will appear in red beside a checkbox. If this occurs, just place a checkmark (tick) in the boxes in question.
                                            • Click the Fix button.
