Ok so the destructor is ~BSTree. I have written another function void delLeafNodes(Node*); void delLeafNodes(Node* n){ if (n->left) delLeafNodes (n->left); if (n->right) delLeafNodes (n->right); // control comes here only when node n has no childs. So delete node n delete n; n = NULL; // not required but I prefer }BSTree::~BSTree(){ delLeafNodes(root); // root = NULL will already be set by the delLeafNodes function. So no need to specify it again}

A HJT log file may be very useful.Otherwise, to clean you system there are some basic steps : 1. Upgrade to SP2 and make sure you have all the latest patches. Use nLite to create a slipstreamed cd of XP with SP2 (separately downloaded) and Rayan Vm's pack which contains all the necessary patches released after SP2. (both the softwares are freeware)2. Download both AdwareSE and Spybot S&D and update the definition files (do not run scan yet). In Spybot S&D under Immunize click Immunize to protect against all malacious sites. Also udate your AV definations.3. Disable System Restore and reboot in safe mode.4. Run full system scans in AdwareSE, Spybot S&D, and the anti-virus you are having. Fix anything found in the scans. Reboot in normal mode. And if you still have issues then you got to post a HijackThis log file.Also remember to fix all viruses/adwares/spywares only when System restore is disabled.If you want to remove messenger and other Windows components then you can use nLite (http://www.nliteos.com/) to remove them directly from the CD, and make your own custom Windows CD.

This is possible if you have NOT ENCRYPTED the folders. Sometimes after a fresh install of Windows, you may get an access denied message to the My Documents folder (even without encryption). Disabling simple file sharing and then taking ownership of the files work only in those cases.

I use NOD32. The only AV i found so far that is so lite on resources. Not only that NOD32 won the most 100% Virus Bulletin awards.IMO, Norton is a virus too ... lol ...... 1: Resource Hogger,2: Difficult to un-install from your system3: false threats/alarms etc, etc ;)Kaspersky is another cool AV too. Also in NOD32 under AMON setup -> Options tab, make sure that all the options are selected

Did you back up your default recovery keys private keys before the format ?? Also did you create a recovery agent ? Actually EFS is used to encrypt files. EFS uses an encryption key that is dynamically generated to encrypt the file. The File Encryption Key (FEK) is encrypted with the EFS public key and is added to the file as an EFS attribute that is named Data Decryption Field (DDF). To decrypt the FEK, you must have the corresponding EFS private key from the public-private key pair. After you decrypt the FEK, you can use the FEK to decrypt the file. If you have a backup of your private key, then follow these steps : 1) Log into the computer. 2) Insert the media with your key on it/ or maybe on your HD 3) Click on Start, and then click on Run. Type: mmc and click OK. 4) A console window will open up. Click on the Console menu, and then click on Add/Remove Snap In 5) Click the Add button in the bottom left of the new window, and then select certificates and click Add. 6) Click the + next to Certificates, and then click the + next to Personal. 7) Single click on Certificates 8) Click on the Action Menu, then click on All Tasks, and then Import. This will bring up the Import Wizard. 9) Click Next, and then click browse. Browse and locate the file within it that contains your key. Click Open. Then click Next. 10) Type in the password. Click Next 11) Make sure the Place all Certificates in the following store is checked, and then click Next and then click Finish. 12) It will hopefully say The import was successful and then you can close out all the console windows and say No to saving the console settings. 13)Now you should be able to access your encrypted files. Had you not encrypted them, you could just log in with admin priviledges, and just taken ownership of the files/folders. If you do not have any backup of the keys, or a recovery agent, then it is impossible for you to decrypt the files.
