    Cant run task manager wormblaster
    Wormblaster will not allow me to open task manager to end the process and will not allow me to delete the temp files and execute the fix from norton. I also can not run regedit. Help

    Boot computer in safe mode. You should be able to access regedit from there. Delete any start up entries you find related to the worm blaster. When you reboot it should run normally.

    As mentioned, run the fix in safe mode and if still issue, post back with as much info as can

    I could not find the files in safe mode delete. So I installed malwarebytes anti malware in safe mode (it would not install and run in normal mode) then ran a scan. It worked. If you have other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks for the help

    There is a program called combofix that might do the trick. It probably wouldn't hurt to do a clean up with something like CCleaner.
