"jewel-boot cistern" ? I wish I had one of those.
I see you're running Windows 2000. Cool, so do I.
Your method will fail for many people as the DLLs will not be deletable. Maybe
if they boot to Safe
Mode first. Even then, with some trojans it's not a good idea, as the registry
will think one of those
DLLs is required and the system won't load without it. you have to clean up the
registry at the same
time as the files, or preferably beforehand.
