| Help
Whenever I try to open/run any of the listed control applets I receive the error as shown in the attachment.......
Display Settings
Internet Options
Regional and Language
Sound
Advanced Power
Network Connections
Game Controllers
Mouse
Keyboard
Date and Time
Security Center
I think that it is a result of a Trojan, this was successfully removed by 'Windows Defender', sorry but I cannot remember the name of the Trojan, I have tried looking for an answer on the internet with no success.
Can anyone help

| I don't have confidence in Windows Defender which is why I use third-party AV products.
There are some trial versions of the more well-known AV products (kaspersky, NOD32) that you could download and run. At least then, you will be able to scan your machine with a more robust product.
Also, make sure you have the latest MSRT installed from Windows Update.
To restore your control panel functions, I would first run "sfc /scannow" from an elevated command prompt. It will scan for corrupt/missing windows system files and will replace them from your Vista media.
Short of that, the only way to get the files back may be a complete reinstall.
