You have obviously visited this link for information on removing the virus:

http://www.symantec.com/security_response/...2030-99&tabid=3

The registry key is there. The best option is to search for it. Open

regedit, Click Edit on he main toolbar and then select Find. In the find

dialogue box type:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer (or

better still copy and paste it into the find box)
