How do I fix my Windows XP Pro/my registry after removing virus?

Question

I had the Total Security/Anti-Virus Pro_2010 rogue virus which I have removed with mulitple programs and then did a registry clean with COMODO but now my Autoplay camera wizard is not automatically popping up like it always has in the past. I ran an Avast scan which found no infected files but also could not scan 44 files. Before this virus Avast always could scan all my files and never showed these "unscannable" files. On a forum I saw that someone provided a forum moderator specialist who was helping them remove their virus the same list of files as mine (in the same order too) from some type of file check they do to figure out how they want to attack and remove the virus. This fact makes me sure that this must be part of my problem. Any info on how to fix this situation would be greatly appreciated. Here are the unscannable files:

Computer errors:

Infect spyware

Registry problem



You are infected with spyware if:



* You see too much pop-up advertisements.

* Your browser has toolbars that you haven't installed.

* Your homepage has changed (and you can't change it back).

* Other settings have changed without your permission.

* Your computer is slow.



To get rid of spyware and keep your computer clean you can use an antispyware or even more.

You can download a antispyware software.

most look like temp files or log, or uninstall files. can't be sure if they are part of the problem or not. i would run some good updated spyware programs in safe mode. and run avast in safe too. then run check disk, and wait a few min and reboot. these are only things to try
