Hi I need some help. I was trying to follow the Knowledge Base-article - 321636 (in swedish) but I can only use the regedit window for about hkey_local_ machine... seconds then it closes, no matter what I do. There isnt time to do what the article tells me tod Does anyone know how to keep that regedit window open. I guess it normaly doesnt close like this. Now i have tried the vga mode but it doesnt help. Please tell me how I can hange my product key, since it isnt win XP pro any longer but but win Xp Home edition that Im using now. ( Ive formatted and reinstalled the OS.)
 
Greetings --

The type of behavior you describe, which also often applies to
Taskmgr.exe and MSConfig.exe (for WinXP), is typical behavior of more
than one virus/worm, the three below being the most common:

W32.Klez

W32.Yaha

W32.Spybot.Worm
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.spybot.worm.html

Because many of the newer viruses and worms, such as the
Spybot mentioned above, can disable antivirus applications whose
definitions aren't kept up-to-date, try using one or more of the free
on-line scanners to double-check your system.
