The Microsoft rescue disk found 4 severe threats:
Exploit: Java/CVE-2010-0840.DW , .EW , .BF , .DZ
He removed them with the Essentials disk, and all showed "severe". Appears it came off a website using Java.
However, all .exe programs are still not working, and Restore will not go.
We are still looking for answers, but may have to reformat the drive and reinstall Windows and use the system restore discs which we made, and restore files with the Backup.
Last attempt is an AVG download to CD ... still scanning with that.
If it fails to find the culprit that sneaked in with java... it will be a full system wipe and restore.
