I got a nasty virus last night on my PC. I was looking on reddit and all of a sudden the screen went black and this warning came up saying I needed to pay a fine to unlock my PC or I would go to jail for having illegal files on my PC. 
I ran hitman pro and super anti spyware but its still there. FML.
There is an alert that pops up when I reboot saying there is a missing file in my registry and it should be deleted. when I click to close the warning thats when the screen goes black and the warning comes up. When that warning is up I can't do anything with the PC except reboot it... can't even start task manager.
I tried to edit my registry and remove the missing file like the warning said but regedit won't let me modify it. Wondering if anyone in the know had an idea what to do???

It's an srt-4, man! It had more in common with the Viper than a Neon! Dead serious!
That reminds me: My 1999 Neon that I drove in college and grad school is still being driven around by the guy I sold it to. That's good for a Neon but pretty sh!tty for the guy that I sold it to.

^ I was referencing what I get told by other people in my run groups at the track.
At last event this lotus driver came to me to tell me about the flames and smoke saying its oil. He said "It didn't smell like oil but it looked like it." I told him it was running rich like 11.1-2 and he replied "I don't know what that means but I'm pretty sure you're burning oil."

Then this dude with a N/A 996 911 took it to another level and asked me how he can get his car to shoot flames too. I was like a mechanical engineer compared to those guys. I guess they just drop their cars off at shop and don't ask any questions or research anything.
You would think that someone would have a small understanding of afr. It applies to all cars.
