I had to go in to safe mode and scan system with A-Squared. It found the virus Net-Worm.Win32.Theals.B I deleted it but now When I go in to safe mode it sets my screen resolution to something like 600 by 400 dpi"s so I can't use any spyware scanners. It has also changed my entire color scheme and is trying to stop me from even posting this question by making the screen go up and down.Can anyone help me get rid of this FREAKEN virus?

640x480, 16 colours is to be expected within Safe Mode

It's not clear what you mean, but "trying to stop me from even posting this question by making the screen go up and down" is difficult to credit

Are you saying (or trying to say) that you are unable to start in Normal Mode - OR - that you are unable to set your desktop to a higher resolution after a normal startup??

If you're able to go online, try an online scan maybe?

Panda (for one)

Thank you for the advice. I did run panda at there internet site and it found nothing. The screen moving up and down was caused by a bad mouse. What I would like to find out is if there are any traces of the virus Net-Worm.Win32.Theals.B left in my registry. Also the file WUWeb Control class is damaged by what the computer tells me. Does anyone know how to repair this file and what it is used for? Thank's, kilray

So - - it really *wasn't* "trying to stop [you] from even posting this question" after all? Hmmm.

"find out is if there are any traces of the virus Net-Worm.Win32.Theals.B left in my registry"

Well, I'm not sure where you're going with this, but if you're scanning 'clean', that's the main thing. If there are 'traces' they are likely of no consequence, since you don't seem to be reporting any "file missing" errors, other than the WUWeb error you allude to.
If you are concerned, you may perform a registry search and see what comes up - Regseeker may prove useful for that, but caution is the watchword when tinkering (although that app creates backups, just in case)

"the file WUWeb Control class is damaged by what the computer tells me"

It would be best if you could relate the exact error message
