Since you have Symantec/Norton, I'd do the following:

Note what it states on your start-up screen for changing the boot pathway, and re-boot following those instructions.

Change the pathway to boot from your Norton CD, if you have a copy on CD or someone can lend you one.

See if you can wipe out the trojan.


This is about the trojan:

You might have to take the 'puter to someone for removal if it can't be done on your end. I wouldn't continue using a computer with a known trojan. Not only is it a known security risk, it can also compromise files, etc.


Another thing, I'd try, because I am of the belief one can't really hurt a 'puter that's already messed up: I'd go into SafeMode, and do a System Restore - setting the computer to an earlier time/date or Checkpoint when everything was known to be working well - to put that trojan in a sleep-type mode.

Until I knew that thing was off the drive, I still would not use the computer for everyday use. I'd not want to mess up my files or take the risk of passing it to anyone else.
