I have been able to get the PC working somewhat.
IE is working and I started the 7 steps of the Malware Removal Guide.
I have completed cc cleaner and moving on to SAS but when i double click the SUPERAntiSpyware.exe nothing happens!!!
No windows pop up nothing! What should I do? What am I doing wrong?

Please print these instructions as they will be needed later when Internet access is not available.

Download SDFix by AndyManchesta and save it to your desktop. RapidShare: Easy Filehosting

When using this tool, you must use the Administrator's account or an account with Administrative rights
  • Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
  • (this is the drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix).
  • DO NOT use it just yet.
.Reboot your computer in Safe Mode using the F8 method. To do this, restart your computer and after hearing your computer beep once during startup (but before the Windows icon appears) press the F8 key repeatedly. A menu will appear with several options. Use the arrow keys to navigate and select the option to run Windows in "Safe Mode".

Open the SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
  • Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
  • It will remove any Trojan Services or Registry Entries found then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
  • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
  • When the PC restarts, the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
  • Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt.
  • Copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt in your next reply.

Did you get it from here? RapidShare: SDFix download

Did you boot into safe mode to try and run it?

Download Deckard's Association File Tool (DAFT) and save it to your desktop.
  • Rename daft.exe to daft.com and double click on it to run.
  • Read the disclaimer and click OK.
  • Click on the Scan button.
  • If it finds faulty file associations, they will appear in red beside a checkbox. If this occurs, just place a checkmark (tick) in the boxes in question.
  • Click the Fix button.
----------

Now try to run SDFix again.

I have the blue screen of death on this PC now.
I have ask a someone at work in the IT group that said he has a utility that will help out.
I plan to give the PC to him.

I know this has been sitting for a very long time. It should be marked SOLVED. How do I mark this string solved?
