Same as any other program, can't access it. you can boot off the installation dvd, and choose the “Repair your computer” option on the lower left hand side. If you don’t have an installation/repair disc, you can make one with these instructions. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/how-to-make-a-windows-vista-repair-disk-if-you-dont-have-one/
Click next on the next screen, and then choose System Restore from the System Recovery dialog. It will take a few seconds to come up, and you will see the same screen that you would see in windows.
Click next, and on the next screen select the drive that your copy of Windows 7 or Vista is installed on.
Click Finish, and Windows will roll back to the previous restore point. Really pretty simple stuff.

GOOD NEWS UPON ME
By using Task Manager and holding CTRL + File(Run) I managed to access the DOS or whatever (the black screen where u can get shit done). I can now access regedit and the registry from there.
Now I'm going to try and delete the following files in the registry
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\BrowserEmulation "TLDUpdates" = '1' HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.exe\shell\open\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "%1" %*' HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\exefile\shell\open\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "%1" %*' HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe\shell\open\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "%1" %*' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet\FIREFOX.EXE\shell\open\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet\FIREFOX.EXE\shell\safemode\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -safe-mode' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet\IEXPLORE.EXE\shell\open\command "(Default)" = '"%LocalAppData%\kdn.exe" -a "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center "AntiVirusOverride" = '1' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center "FirewallOverride" = '1'
As well as these files
%AllUsersProfile%\U3F7PNVFNCSJK2E86ABFBJ5H %LocalAppData%\ppn.exe %Temp%\U3F7PNVFNCSJK2E86ABFBJ5H %LocalAppData%\U3F7PNVFNCSJK2E86ABFBJ5H %AppData%\TEMPLATES\U3F7PNVFNCSJK2E86ABFBJ5H
And that should get rid of the virus....
Hoppefully my .exe files comeback after that too but I have a feeling that I'll need to do more shit...

Just try a rescue disk, way easier and more efficient.

My best advice is to re-install Windows. This type of Malware is designed to be profitable at the expense of the victim, and trust me when I say the creators are relentless. Whether that means tricking you to pay for their crap, or stealing credit card information. Due to that fact, and the nature of how operating systems function (you can never be 100% sure the given malware is completely removed if it has root-kit functionalities), I will personally always recommend a reinstall.

I had this exact same virus on my machine just a couple months ago. Ended up accidentally removing the association to exe files in an attempt to get rid of it. I did a google search and found the reg keys you can download to re-associate exe files.
You don't need to reinstall windows.

Ive only ever gotten rid of this by reinstalling windows.

Try with full path, c:\windows\system32\regedit.exe?
|
After it's done you might want to think about buying a backup external drive. After years of clicking on stupid things I learned it's best ot just reformat and start fresh with my media secured on a unconnected drive
Sorry.

Anyone who uses "pl0x" any where other than 4chan deserves to be hacked.

I would use the association fix now, and then run combofix (transfer from USB to desktop) to get rid of the virus.
What are rescue disks? I might make one soon. Also, this thread should be under tech support, you'd get less replies but better replies there.

A bootable cd image, that will scan and remove infections from your pc. So it's basically an anti virus that you can run without booting your os Trying to disinfect a pc by booting it first and then trying to remove the infection is a losing battle.

I got rid of this for a friend recently I just used SuperAntiSpyware's Mobile version its named differently so the virus doesn't block the EXE of it. gl I would just follow the bleepingcomputers link others have posted its what I used as a reference also

Well fuck your KARA collection better not be in danger.
Good luck!
Also, perhaps you should make a seperate thread in the Tech Support section?There are some really smart guys there too who don't read blogs.

If you speak binary, post it in tech support.
Otherwise post it in blogs or say "use a code to english translator" before hitting post.
Derailing a thread only serves to lose focus on the original intention.

Number 1 reason why I didn't just reinstall obv obv.
I haven't tried to fix my registry yet, I will try tomorrow morning and if I can't get it to work I'll consider posting in Tech Support (lol did not even know that section existed). Thanks!
And then I'm backing up the collection on external hard drive. This work of art must be preserved.

You didn't get hacked, you just got malware.
Try to get a better anti-virus/malware so it doesn't happen again.
There's almost never a need to re-install windows, or run msconfig, cuz if you don't know what you're doing you can EFF up big time.
Regedit is pretty confusing, but once you get down the file tree and layout as well as the data entry, you should be fine. Make sure you only change what you need to, cuz if you mess certain things up... gg. Just follow the guide on the site you got and it should be fine.
Regedit should help you take care of most of the virus triggers, but make sure you search your C drive for hidden folders or newly created files+folders. (Sort by date modified) Also use MalwareBytes to makes sure everything is gone.
GL!
