Removing System Restrictions After Malware

Malware not only steals data and tries to sell you bogus software, but it also locks down your PC in an effort to make malware removal that much more difficult.

Below are a few commands that will add/change registry entries so that you can administer your PC:

===================================

If you get the following message – Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator.

Click Start–Run–and paste the following code into the command text box and click Ok:

REG add HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

===================================

If you get this message: Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator.

Click Start–Run–and paste the following code into the command text box and click Ok:

REG add HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

===================================

If you get: The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.

Click Start–Run–and paste the following code into the command text box and click Ok:

REG add HKCUSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindowsSystem /v DisableCMD /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

===================================

    Does anyone know of any application that will automaticly do these things for you?
    ive found “dagnose windoes” but its not exactly what ive been looking for.

    Jason, I have a small program called Enabler that someone made from one of the websites that I frequent, it will is 7kb in size and when you open it 6 things are checked by default and you can adjust as needed, they are:
    Regedit
    CMD
    Run
    TaskManager
    FolderOptions
    Control Panel
    There are two buttons, one is Enable and the other is About. Although he has a website with many of his programs on it this is one that he hasn’t put up but I’d be willing to share it but don’t really prefer to toss it out there openly, if you’d like it though perhaps I can hop onto the forums and a PM with specifics can be arranged?
