Exclamation Spyware Help

I just had some very nasty spyware attack my pc. I mean, I have seen my computer get hit with spyware and viruses, but this is just nasty! I am unable to use task manager. Who/whatever it is that has gotten into my computer has taken my rights away from that. I am not able to access safemode either. I cannot remember my password for the admin either.I just now got back the ability to get online and use msn. It has created tons of new icons on my desktop as well as auto installed some anti spyware programs. I have spysubtract on my computer but it will not let me run it. It will end task on it.It changes my background image into an ad for spyware removal as well. Anyone have any ideas what else I could do, other then reformating? System restore will not work either.

Oh, you have a big virus in your pc that doesnt let you use your task manager. You should try using spyware doctor and post your hijacklog here too.

The password you are seeking probably is nothing by the way...however step 1 would be to try XP repair:

If you get in then immediately do online scans at:

If all that fails backup and reformat...
