Well ... it's not a virus anyway.

You should supplement your pack of AV software with some antimalware
programs. MBAM and SAS are often recommended here.

There *are* viruses, but this isn't one of them.

Hey folks, thanks for the help, much appreciated. I wish had of asked you
folks sooner. I clicked on Search&Destroy and it made a mess of the
registry, so I ended up with a login -logout loop.

I'm now following the instructions at http://thinkinginpixels.com/quick-
fixes/fix-windows-xp-log-onlog-off-loop/
in an effort at least get back into my system. Then I will follow your
instructions.

Wish me luck! I need it!

This might help

http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/07/02/how-to-edit-windows-registry-key-values-without-booting-in-windows/

The key
HKEY_USERS > Microsoft > Windows NT > CurrentVersion > Winlogon

That normally points to userinit.exe

was most likely changed by malware to point to an infected file, when
the file is removed without changing the registry entry you can't login.

If you have a seconf pc and can slave the drive and figure out the name
of the file that was removed copy userinit.exe to that file name which
might work without changing the registry, but you'll need to fix
registry once you do login.

Thanks again folks for the help. I finally finished it off with MalwareBytes
Antimalware.

All is well, apart from an error at bootup
Error Loading c\:windows\otejafabipere.dll
Any ideas?

TIA
