Both safe and regular modes found deleted and found again repeatedly:

Tried to run unupdated yahoo macafee, and it found:
Network1.Popups Adware
YourEnhancement Downloader
WinBo32 Adware

spybot ; found and (fixed?):
AbetterInternet
MediaMotor

adaware se full system scan; found and fixed?
Win32.Tro… Malware c:\WINDOWS\mrnla.exe
Win32.Tro… Malware c: \WINDWOwnupkae.exe

ADAWARE:
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@trafficmp[1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@trafficmp[2].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@tribalfusionj[1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@ tribalfusionj [2].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@ tripod [1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\m.j.swaim@tripod[1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@valueclick [1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@z1.addserver [1].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@zedo [3].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@zedo [2].txt
C:WINDOWS\Cookies\test@zedo [1].txt
Unable to delete

Went to safe mode ctrl pane /internet options / settings / window/cookies and deleted thousands of cookies.
the only thing left is my directory which wont delete

Speaking of which, there are a lot of copies of my diretory scattered around under various names with icons on the control panel along with the icon for WinAntiVirusPro 2006

Had a spybot pop-up message:
System Startup global entry
Value added:
Entry: win3207086739768

add infinitum - just change the number after win32, also multiple copies of win32XXXXX
and "mrnla" on ctrl_alt_delete programs running probably others that shouldn't be there.

Also window:

RUNDLL

Error loading C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\DMONWV.DLL


I have been struggling with this for 37 days, so don't have a good registry to go back to.


I can do a few things in safe mode still, but in regular mode: run out of space on bootup.

Accessing internet and you from another computer.

It sounds to me like you'd be better off formatting the HDD and reinstalling Windows. However, you may want to try this first:

General Cleaning Instructions

Also, if you're unable to get rid of something by deleting it in Safe Mode, I would try booting into DOS instead. And while you're in DOS, scan with F-Prot for DOS.

Good luck!

Trojans are usually self-contained and don't spread to other files, whereas virii will infect other files (they're parasitic). It seems you have the latter, in which case a reinstall is highly recommended.
