Hi there people. After some usage of Lava soft Ad-aware and just a few scans, my PC went to hell. I have rebooted the system after the last scan and now I cant open any of exe files. Even shortcuts. My system doesnt seem to know which program to use for any extension. Total Disaster. I am afraid to do anything else except asking for advice. Please, someone!

This looks like your Ad-aware wasnt updated at all. You have performed your scans with a blind software. This is a virus result my friend. Detach your hard drive and connect it to another computer with some up to date antivirus and scan your entire drive. After the scan move or copy your important data form C partition to another than perform clean install of new Windows. This is the only and the smartest solution. It happens.
