Also... I recommend for everybody Mike Lin's awesome program "Startup Control Panel"... goes beyond MSCONFIG to give you control over what processes are slated to startup on your PC (via the registry). When you have a nasty virus, you can tell from this program, because as you try to delete or disable something from one of the various STARTUP registry areas, it will mysteriously reappear in front of your eyes. That's a sign that one of the processes running on your PC is popping the nasty dll or exe right back into the registry so it will start up when you reboot.
