Hello. Last night I was infected with some spyware/malware that made my desktop background a picture of "spyware detected" and it points to virtumonde. So I ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and removed 12 files. It asked me to restart computer and I did. However, it would not load the Windows Welcome screen. I only see a black screen and a mouse cursor.

I'm running Windows XP SP2, my default internet browser is Firefox 3.

I have done the following:
- Boot using CD, and run checkdisk
- Try to run repair installation (however, repair option did not show up)
- Go into Safe Mode and run Adaware, Spybot, HijackThis, and Anti-Malware
- I tried restoring all deleted spyware files/registry, but still hangs at Welcome Screen and etc.
- Disable all non-essential services and processes; still hangs at Welcome Screen or right before the Welcome screen (black screen with mouse cursor)
- I was able to get through Windows welcome screen once, I have no idea how I did it
- Windows occasionally freezes
- Event Log points to DCOM 10005, sometimes Service Control Manager 7001, and 7026.
