Did KILLBOX give you an error? Did you paste the whole path to the file in the box and checkmark the boxs I asked you too?

Do the fix again from the start....this time REBOOT after you run the .reg file (before trying to delete it) and then go to C:\Windows and delete that file. (Don't use KILLBOX) If that doesn't work..proceed below.

Lets try doing it in DOS. Go to Add/Remove programs and click on the third tab, "Make a Recovery disc" (something like that). Make a disc and then re-boot with the disc in. It should give you the option of starting without CD Rom support, which you should choose. At this point, it should come up with the A:\ prompt which you can then turn to C:\ by typing C: and press enter.

Once there type this cd windows then enter.
Your command prompt should look like this now.. C:\Windows
Now type the following del WININVT.LOG then enter

If you get an error..try typing this
attrib -s -h -r WININVT.LOG *With spaces between the letters*
Hit enter

Then type del WININVT.LOG again and enter

This file MUST be deleted before we continue.

Post another startdreck log when finished and let me know which deletion method worked.
