I'm running Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit with Service Pack 1 and all
other updates (as far as I can tell).

I am having similar problems to the OP in this thread
(http://www.vistax64.com/vista-security/ ... rnel32.dll and
wsock32.dll files as trojans and locked them in the vault. I approved
the transfer a long time ago and only recently realized my mistake. When
I attempted to restore the files, however, Avast! says that it was able
to complete the action "with errors" (the error being that it couldn't
move the files).

However, in addition, I think I am missing other .DLL files, such as
the Wireless Extensibility Module. I've already tried re-installing the
WLAN driver, updating the driver, using alternate Wireless management
software, and doing a system restore. Yet the problem persists. I've
even tried doing a complete system restore from boot-up, but it says
that none exist.

Another problem is that various other .exe files in the /System32
folder won't execute (I am assuming this is because they are missing
associated .DLLs).

I have all important documents backed up, so it wouldn't be a problem
to a total system restore, but, like I said, I can't.

Help!

Do the SFC to see if you can get things back the O/S needs. As far as
Avast is concerned, if this is not operator error in using the product,
then you might consider getting rid of it.

Unfortunately, the SFC is one of the .exe files that isn't working due
to missing .DLL files (I assume). Because I don't know which .DLL files
I'm missing, exactly, it's hard for me to go through and manually
re-install.

You should flatten/format the HD and reinstall the O/S. Otherwise,
you're looking for a miracle that's not going to happen.

I plan on doing exactly that when I'm home on break. Unfortunately, I
don't have my o/s disks with me at school to re-install windows.

I was hoping to limp by until I get home (it's only another week or
two), but I will save a document, and after I reboot, I'll still have
the file that I had from before I saved the file. I know I saw a fix for
this (I think a windows vista patch) but I can't seem to find it now.
Does anyone know what it's called?

Also -- how does one flatten the HD?

"Flatten" is another term for "format".
