How Can I get my Start Bar Stuff Back after a Virus?
Download this file and run it on the computer that you want to get the settings back on. (If the file does not download but just takes you to a page with just text go back and right click on the link and click "Save Link As..." then you can download the file.) Just make sure that you click "Yes" when it asks you to import the registry settings.
Note to power users: If you want to see the settings that are being modified by this file just right click on it after downloading it and click on "Edit".
Please note: Your browser may warn you that this type of file may potentially harm your computer. This is true. If I would have had some different values in this file this file could do some nasty stuff. As it is, it will reverse the changes that the virus has already inserted in your registry.
