I have just been hit by the yaha worm. Nearly all of my
shortcuts no longer work. No office applications will
run. I can't add/remove programs.

I get a rundll32.exe error when i try to run anything
from explorer.

I reallly don't want to lose my data by reformatting my
hard drive.

Any suggestions please
