For removing viruses and spyware, you will most likely find that you
need to boot into Safe Mode. You can accomplish this by pressing F8
while booting, and choosing Safe Mode from a menu, however some find
this difficult to do. The following instructions allow you to boot into
safe mode without the need for "good timing" with the mouse...
1. Click: Start, Run
2. Type msconfig and press enter
3. Select the BOOT.INI tab
4. Check the /SAFEBOOT check-box, if you want network support as well, check the NETWORK radial
5. Click Apply & OK
The computer will now boot into safe mode. When done, follow these same steps and uncheck /SAFEBOOT |
