Hello,

I just got the masty System Security virus and I need some help. I've read alot of the postings and tried a few but nothing seems to work. First off I cannot boot in safe mode, i get a blue screen telling me there is a virus. I have been able to open task mamager if i open it right as the system is booting and then cancel the process. however even though i've done that i cannot run the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it opens and then closes. When I open windows expolrer i cannot see the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data to manually remove it. I tried to add the address bar so i could type it but no luck. I try to open regedit and I get a message that its locked by the administrator. I'm in as administrator. I tried to run the MMalware from a flash drive still no luck.
Can anyone help me, Please!!!

Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 8.0
