You need to download adaware from lavasoft.com and delete everything it finds. Then download spybot search and destroy from downloads.com and do the same thing.

If after running Ad-aware & Spybot you still can't run regedit go to the link below and download and install "Fixswen.inf".

Save the fixswen.inf file to your local hard disk, right-click on the file and choose install.

A Setup INF file to undo registry changes made by W32/Swen@MM and other threats that prevent REGEDIT, BAT, COM, EXE, PIF, REG and SCR files from running.

It should correct the regedit problem.
