naaa, the first site is always wikipedia anyways. but yeah i should probably have looked that up.i guess ill just torrent that up and try to burn it to a cd.

im not sure of the name, does knoppix require no installation to run linux? if so then yes thats what i meant. would that work though?

i hear theres like a linux disk that allows you to use linux as long as you have the cd inserted, could i just use that and not install linux?

nod32? is that virus protection or how to edit the registry? not sure, "n" might be norton but then "32" is where regedit is stored so im not sure.

the "funny" thing is that i just switched from a harddrive that had been virused but i hadnt gotten around to transferring everything to the new one.

edit: com files dont work so, command.com doesnt work. i tried other ways to get to cmd but none of them worked.. on the website you gave it listed the files that i couldnt use but dat was not not listed, so either it lists only major file types or it doesnt have the specificvirus i have. although since both this and the pretty park virus give the exe/shell/open/command as the main area to be fixed, i assume that WAS what was ruined. although at another glance the page says that a random string should popup at startup which does happen.

recently my comp got a virus that i looked up and is called petty/pretty park virus or something. the main thing is that i cant execute exe's on the computer (btw i have no clue how i got it since i have adaware and mcaffe virus protection on simultaneusly at all times). any way the only way i found to get rid of it is by editing the registry. now as some of you think to yourself "just use regedit" remember that this is an exe rendered useless by the stupid virus and therefor cant be used. specifically i need to know if anyone knows how to edit the registry without regedit or any other exe. also, the website said something about changing the format of regedit to a dot com, but this has proven fruitless so either they're wrong or im doing it wrong (open with notepad and saving as a dot com file [the new file's properties reads that the filetype is COM but it wtill wont open...]) so if anyone knows how to do that then i'd be grateful. i can acess the internet somehow on that computer, operah still works as my default browser when i choose to see if windows can find the program that made the exe idk if that adds some options or something... anyway, any help would be appreciated as my mom hates me using her computer and i have 4 projects due friday.

naa dun worry about delays and stuff like that. this is one of the few projects that have constant updates these days so delays and stuff dont really bother me nun. besides, errors and the like that arent truly under your conroll arent really your fault.

bug report: i thought i posted this before, guess not, you can make pieces disapear sometimes on the left wall, btw this is 1.2 on dcs and i havent been able to do this on the right wall.
