Interestingly for the observers here I had a look at msconfig, just to see what I could see, didn't alter anything as I couldn't see anything amiss, rebooted and was stuck in safe mode. Tried rebooting into mot recent working config, still safe mode. System Restore didn't seem to be working, I got the message where it says it can't protect your computer which usually means it wasn't turned on. I used Barts to get in under the radar and restored a backed up copy of the registry (ERUNT). That simply made no difference. Hmmmm. Perplexed me a bit, that. I ran Spybot which found a dialer which I got rid of but that made no difference, I then ran malwarebytes which made no difference either but I did notice I had loads of backups for system restore, snapshots etc. Odd if it wasn't working! I ran msconfig in safe mode and tried system restore from there. It was working from there! It got my machine running again. How odd that SR worked and ERUNT didn't - what does that signify, anyone?
