Hello.
Can you boot the machine in safe mode rather than normal mode?

Nope, seems like the virus is preventing me from doing that

Darn.
When you get onto the F8 menu, can you choose "Last known good configuration" rather than safe mode and let me know if that works.

It's theifware, displays fake alerts to goad the user into buying their fake products.

Normally they don't cause BSOD, that defeats the entire purpose of theifware, there could be something else going on though.

Please download this file: Avira Rescue Disc

  1. Insert a black CD into your CD draw.
  2. Double click the rescuecd.exe file on your Desktop.
  3. Hit the "Burn CD" button and allow it to burn, it shouldn't take too long.
  4. Next, reboot your computer, keep the CD inside the draw.
  5. Your computer should boot from the CD and boot to the Avira rescue disc.
  6. Next, see this guide here: How to use the boot disc
Let me know how it goes.

Hello.
Using the pictures in the guide, are you able to use it by looking at the picture then compare the options you get in another language?
