    Hi,

    I somehow managed to have a spyware infection thanks to "Spyware Protect 2009" bleh.

    I've installed and ran an anti-virus program. I was going to enter SAFE MODE to run Ad-Aware and SpyBot, so I set it to boot into SAFE MODE in the MSCONFIG options. However, it won't boot. The blue Windows XP screen comes up, then the black screen with SAFE MODE in each corner and some windows info at the top...but it won't actually go into windows.

    I'm stuck with it entering SAFE MODE. Is there a way to get it to boot normally?

    I booted from the CD and entered Setup, which ran fine until it restarted the computer and tried to go into Windows to continue the setup...which it couldn't because it can't run in SAFE MODE.

    Any help would be very appreciated.

    Thanks!
