Hello!

My problem is regarding the xp internet security 2011 virus. I think I have managed to delete it, but in doing so, I have become unable to open any .exe files. I did achieve to open one file by right clicking it and then run as, then as administrator. What does not make sense to me is that I am the administrator. The virus really messed up my computer. I am currently in safe mode, which is why I am able to post this. This is really bothering me as I have an exam tomorrow and I actually need my computer. Help would be really appreciated!
