XP logs off after typing password

After trying numerous times, my friend helped me get rid of a very stubborn virus (svcinit.exe) by going into regedit and deleting it from there. The trouble is, after we did that, my XP won't load. The system logs off automatically after I type my password. It will say "Loading your personal settings" for one second and then will say "Saving your personal settings." Has anyone had this same problem before? What to do next??

Sounds like you deleted a system file that the virus was sharing or had corrupted. I would use my XP CD to do a reinstall. Go through the whole installation process, but choose the Repair XP option when it appears. Good Luck.
