The following Registry key is where apps tend to be disabled by viruses...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\RestrictRun
If you find Malwarebytes, Spybot Search and Destroy, and AVG9 in there, delete them. In fact, the entire RestrictRun key is normally not present on any healthy computer. Group Policy in some domains will use this, but home computers won't.
You have to reboot for changes to work. (In a domain, GP will reapply at reboot.)
If you can't run Regedit, then search the internet for...
re-enable registry portable
...for a utility that unlocks Windows features.

Never tried this, but it's solid advice. might allow combofix to be run
 
I tried to install the outdated version (only one i could find) and it says expired license key... this probably explains why its not available for download... anyone have another program?? please help....


edit, updating now, lets see how this goes...
 
found 7 items, chose to delete them all... i am now scanning with adaware.

spybot opens now finally... ill try a scan with that too
 
worked excellent i believe...

no more redirecs, pop-ups, programs now run, and the computer does not freeze!!!

Thanks so much for the help guys!!!!!
