    Arrow HKEY_LOCAL file keeps returning after restart!

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\wscsvc\start (is not) w=2

    I was infected with a virus before but I think I got rid of the big problem
    and now it's just this
    every time I get Spybot to fix this problem it JUST KEEPS COMING BACK
    I'm getting very frustrated, I've been trying to fix this for a week already.
    it disables Windows Security, I tried to turn it on
    by going to
    run services.msc > security center
    turning it to automatic
    and then pressing start,
    but it says that system status: stopped
    and I can't press the start button
    then I went back to Spybot found it AGAIN and then fixed it
    went back and I was able to turn on Security Center
    but when I restart the computer
    Windows Security is disabled and the HKEY file is there again
    does anyone know how to fix this problem?
