Run your system in safe mode & then run regedit and create another account with ADMIN

Run regedit in safe mode. Also, you can try copying the file regedit.exe to regedit.com in some other folder and seeing if it runs... If these methods work, you are probably dealing with a virus. Please inform us if you have performed a complete system scan with an antivirus and antispyware. Also, name the software used... Also, post a hijackthis report to further help isolate the problem...

If you are getting an exe file of name of its containing folder and of size around 44 KB then you are infeted by Klone virus. Scan with AVG or Avast with latest Virus Definitions
