I can't copy pest and or upload files/ text from my machine to a webpage, e.g. in this forum. Before hand tried to post my hijackthis log etc. but as I push the submit button a blank page rises with the done msg on Browser, but msg is not being uploaded. Tried to pst a image file somewhere but only half of it uploaded after a good time. Days before some one sent me a file from qns@hotmil named helen! it said " You asked for this". Foolishly I clicked the .dll/ exe file it contained (a place to put password sent by the same attachment zip, poped with a enter button). I had no idea what that may be but now stuck at this. Please help.

More to add, I can not log in to my machine using safe mode, as I do this, it restart saying an apology for not being able to do so. I can only type and that only would be available. Even can not attach a file to my e-mail compose (yahoo). Most awackward condition I have ever faced! I dont know even if you ask me to show you the log, then how shall I be able to do it! Waiting for experts in rescue ... I need you badly.

more to add ... just noticed that the zonelab is showing three "Generic host process for win32 services" apps/ .dll surfing the net.I tried to block them but then I can not open webpages. One of the process seems hyper active. Cant track what it is sending. One is responding to 255.255.255.255, another is responding to my ISP and third if denied, is blocking the net access and asking for permission with changed address! Whats all this I do not know. By latest my DVD combo drive is not reading any CD and or dvd. My Trojan remover/ scanner is showing some(3) files those tries to access my dvd drive during boot and they reside at HKLM and are missing!!!!! Do not know whether I will be able to see your answer from this machine in future! wish me some luck, please!
