Two weeks, two viruses, now I am infected with something that does not allow
me to open ANYTHING from the Control Panel, I get a message:

C\WINDOWS\System32\rundll32.exE
Application not found

I tried to do a system restore but I get a blue screen with something like:
If this is the first time you see this message...blah blah blah and I can not
do anything in that screen other that reboot. I also saw in a website about
copying and pasting the rundll32.exe but I do not think it worked or if I did
it correctly. PLEASE, can somebody help?
 
System restore is not a reliable way of disinfecting a virus.

If at all possible, format (erase) the disk and do a full reinstall. The
only other option is a lot of manual work ensuring that that infection has
been removed.

Once done rethink your security policies.
 
Don't confuse "format" with "erase" or "wipe".

Format might not be enough in some cases.
