    check whats starting up and remove anything that looks fishy
    then go into autoexec and look for things on the run= line
    and tell me whatss there

    and then clean your registry ... if that doesnt work .. go back in your registry ....

            At the taskbar, right-click Start and select Explore. Search for Autoexec.bat in the root of the C: drive and open it in Notepad

                      update, thanks for all your help guys...

                      had some nasty data miner that ad aware has just got rid of.

                      system seems a lot more stable now BUT

                      anti virus still wont start and icons still look like in first post.

                      a little worried here

                          maybe try booting into safe mode and running the anti-virus.
