    Thumbs down System32.exe missing...

    Hi I had a virus in my PC and it corrupted System32.exe and I had to delete it...Now everytime I start my PC I get a message that System32 or one of its component is missing...

    I search in the registry to find the entry and I found this in Winlogon Section...

    Shell REG_SZ Explorer.exe ]DriveLetter]:\WINNT\System32\System32.exe

    Does anyone knows a way to get this file back...

    Cheers...

    before I do that I want to know what exactly this registry entry do...

    I understand from my programming knowledge that Shell Explorer.exe will open the Explorer but Shell Explorer.exe System32.exe means Its going to open System32.exe into Explorer


    Correct me if I am wrong here and making any bad guess...

    Cheers...
