Win 7 IE Virus help

[fiery]

I recently had a virus on my Windows 7 which I removed with Ad-Aware. After I removed it with the Ad-Aware, I realized I could not access Internet Explorer direct by clicking on the icon; a window would open asking for me to choose the program I would like to use to open the internetexplorer.exe . I did figure out that if i right click the icon and choose "run as administrator", it will then work-but i have to do that every time i want to access the internet.

I soon noticed that clicking on other applications would result in an error message saying "Application Not Found". I can not delete programs from my control panel because it is inaccessable, I can not do a system recovery, or restore; the same messages will pop up. So basically, I can not make any changes to my desktop or access programs directly. Please help.

Try booting into safe mode with networking and if you can get the net download this and run.
