On my Lenovo laptop, I got a virus about WebSearchMania. I went into the registry editor and deleted anything I felt suspicious. When i finished, the first thing i noticed was that google chrome stopped working. I proceeded to restart my laptop. When Windows was loading again, it took longer than usual. When it loaded, the lock screen was blue and it had random characters. When i tried to log in, it would say random characters and would take me back to the lock screen.
Please help!
Thanks,
