Man thats a nasty one;

If you have not killed this thing yet, try XoftSpy SE. Use link below for access to link and manual instructions for removal complete with list of Registry keys.

or

Try E-Squared(Free); http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

After scan/removal (either one) and BEFORE reboot, download and run JavaSUN registry scanner;

I thought for sure you had gotten this one allready, but the thread just kept comming up.

Yes, you can boot from and load xp from the ubcd4win cd, which also comes with some av and antispyware apps, but hopefully you could just delete the file at that point. Also when you checked the file properties in the security tab, did you then click advanced, then goto Owner, then check your user name to take ownership? Most likely though, a live cd like ubcd4win or one of the linux ones would give you access to your filesystem without getting infected.. Hiren's boot cd is a good one with built in tools as well.

Done the ubcd4win disk... and the computer didn't want to boot from the dvd drive! Even when I went in the bios again and removed the HDD from being a boot device and put just the DVD rom. :mad:

Finally, as per Mussels' suggestion, I removed the HDD, put it in my rig, deleted cryptne.dll effortlessly, and put the HDD back again. All it took was 10 minutes...

But at last I got rid of that pest! :nutkick:

Be sure to run a good registry cleaner, before it re-downloads that thing again.
