    I followed instructions as recomended - don't ask me what happned as it is all a blur, step 2 stumped me for a while when "Workstation Netlogon Service" showed up but I could not open stop button. Forged ahead got through step 3 and then downloade all the tools in 4 to c drive hell but found most of them, Ran them and there were thousands of whatever the hell and I deleted them even when there were warning signs saying proceed at "our own risk" sort of makes you feel the same as when you pass that "Wrong Way Do Not Enter" going on to the freeway. I killed and killed and then went on to option steps and killed some more. I shut it down and restarted only to have my home page come up with about:blank. I opened ad-adware se and ran it again and guess what 64 problems again bit the dust most of them CWS shut it down again and just like George W. found out that you need to surround yourself with good men. IT IS GONE FOR NOW - Thanks
