Windows XP-SP2 : “New Folder” Virus attack

[CyberSoftHari]

My system affected by “New Folder” Virus. Now I cannot get my regedit and taskmanager. I scanned my system with antivirus using AVG, Norton and virus removed but till no use.
How can I get my regedit and taskmanager and what can I do?

To enable both Regedit and Task Manger Follow these procedures...

Steps in enabling registry editor:

After scanning, go to run dialog box.

Type gpedit.msc then goto:

User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System

in right-side pane, set
"Prevent access to Registry editing tools" to either Not Configured or Disabled.

(or)

Copy the following code,paste in any notepad and save as "regtools.v bs" file. Just double click it and you will get yor regedit enabled.(Be careful to copy the code exactly as presented here including everything.

Code goes here.......

Thank you cooldilip and VACEPROGRAMER,
I enabled task manager and never tried this regedit. Because the PC affected is at home so I am unable to copy this code (no internet connection.).

HARRY just get a Windows XP SP2 cd and make a repair of windows.
Thats the solution.
