Thank you so much for your assistance!

This thing is almost crippled. It will still browse the net somewhat but no printing, install, remove capabilities.

I backed up everything that matters and then tried to proceed with the combofix instructions. When trying to get it to install the recovery console it doesn't do anything. I can't find an XP disc so I went to the microsoft website the onstructions direct me to and downloaded the appropriate file. The instructions then say to drag it overtop the combofix icon and drop it and then it should automatically install the console. I do that and a window pops up saying there's no digital certificate for combofix, I click "run", then the window goes away and nothing else happens, doesn't lock up, hard drive light doesn't blink like it's installing something, just back to the desktop.

Thanks and God bless,
