tried the *bat file - no luck

That normally shows the sid of an account that is no longer on the system, something the virus may have done. You can remove it. Also did you take owner ship of the keys as well?

pablo204:
Hi,

How do I take ownership?

Shane:
Same way you take permissions, you will see another tab at the top :wink:

Shane

pablo204:
