I used AVG to clean the virus infected files. It took about 10 passes
to get the PC clean. the first time I ran it 450 infected files were
found and deleted. the second time i ran it 415 were found then the
next time i ran it 319 etc.

Yes all the tools are latest versions and updated

now on to the current problem.

I have run Ad-Aware, MS Antispyware, and Spybot search and destroy both
MS Antispyware and Spybot find 2 spyware hits.

PSGaurd - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ShudderLTD\PSGUARD
YourSiteBar - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\YourSiteBar

these are registry entries
the spyware removel programs say the removed them but when they are run
again the same 2 reg entries are caught.

I have tried to manually delete the entries but get a can not delete
selected key. Error while deleting key.

Thank you for all your help
