Computer Will Not Startup in Safe Mode
My computer has not been able to start up in safe mode for several months now. I think Spyware was responsible for it.
Before I go through the long process of reformatting and resinstalling 30 programs or more, does anyone have a cure to fix the startup in safe mode which is F5 on my system. |

You're gonna reformat b/c you can't start in safe mode? What about starting up normally?

if you suspect spyware, why not run Spubot and Adaware? You did not mention what you tried already, so i would consider this a good first step
