trackback
A virus called “Brontok ” could disable your registry editing tool “regedit”.
In order to get it back to work you don’t need any anti-virus or complicated steps, i get it back to my computer using this three simple steps:
1. start -> run
if you have too many viruses and you can’t find the run icon in you start menu, fix this first:

2. enter ‘cmd’ then ok
3. then enter this code and press enter
REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
now you can open the registry edit directly start-> run -> regedit !

Worked for me. Thanks!
Now to find the reg items to turn on the Screen Saver and Desktop tabs of the desktop properties dialog.
Does this only work after the virus is removed?
