No I did not know I have XP partition.
I renamed it to svchost in safe mode and standard win7, it still did not start. What's wrong ?

I believe you have an MBR infection, that is why neither TDSSKiller nor aswMBR will run

Could you reboot your computer and immediately press and hold F8

On the menu that appears is there an option "repair my computer"

As I will need to work from the recovery console for this one

Essexboy:

I tried "repair my computer" but it hung up twice.
Since I need to pay bills on this computer, I went ahead and did a system recovery from the repair disk I made back in March.
My computer is back to normal now, though I need to install a few applications.
Thanks much for your helps.  I really appreciate it.

Any advice on how to keep my computer safe from what just happened to me beside running avast ?  I have Avast installed since March at least.
