Looks like fun pooch.

Manny whatever you do DO NOT try and do the fixes shown in that thread on your own. If you are going to do anything it would be far better to register there and post a Hijackthis log and get personal help.

I think I would prefer a format and install from backups
You are certainly right about not doing this alone
