I have resolved this problem by simple steps:
Step 1 - Download this file to run to fix regedit command:
http://www.mediafire.com/?enye5dj0wjm
After this step .exe file may run normally even the icon is seem Window media center file. (If not - do continously from Step 2)
Step 2 - In Run command box, type comman: Regedit
Step 3 - Open by this tree folder:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ FileExts \ .exe
Finally - Delete all cotents which are rellate to Window Media Center.
It must be work, I were done on Windows 7, Good Luck!

Thanks your help but I can't get past the first step. I don't get fix regedit command:but fix-exe-setdefault.rar Windows does not support rar files. When I try to run Bitzipper so I can use a rar file WMC opens and blocks me from running it. If you look at the log I have not been able to download any file suggested.

Hey guys...i had this very frustrating virus, and was going to do the' regedit' thing, I backed up my files to a another storage device and was going to reformat my HD and re-load Windows 7. But BEFORE I went through all THAT trouble, I was able to log off my administrator profile, go under the guest profile, and THEN use system restore once I used a administrator password.....worked great. Went back about a week and Pc is fine, gonna run Mallwarebytes just to be sure though...i hope this helps someone, It was very simple, quick, and kept me from my registry, reloading windows 7 etc etc.
Hello,
I will try my best to solve your problem.
There is an option provided in Windows 7 Media Center to run on startup every
time we turn on our computer. Maybe that option is selected which results in
opening Windows Media Center at startup.
Steps to uncheck that option :
In Windows Media Center--->click on "Settings"-->select "General"--->select
"Startup and Window Behavior"---> there we can find the option "Start Windows
Media Center when Windows starts", just uncheck that checkbox---->then click
on Save.
When it comes to Control Panel, may be it was configured to get disabled in
group policy or in registry.
To check whether the control panel was disabled from Group Policy, these are the steps :
1) Type gpedit.msc in the Search box in the Start menu --> press Enter.
2)Local Group Policy Editor will be opened--->now navigate to this location
User Configuration \ Administrative Templates
click on Control Panel at the left column.
Now at the right side you can find the option "Prohibit access to the Control Panel"--> just double click on it ---->Select "Not Configured" ---> then try logging off or restarting your PC if the changes are not affected.
To check whether the control panel was disabled from registry, these are the steps :
1)Type regedt32 in the Search box in the Start menu --> press Enter.
2)Registry Editor will be opened, now navigate to this location
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Policies
\Explorer
3)Then at the right side, if you find a file named NoControlPanel, just delete that
file.
When it comes to internet explorer, we can try resetting the internet explorer settings . Here is the link

Dear Sir,
Please consider opening the Task Manager and end all the unidentified processes and then get your computer scanned. If its seems that you can't access to the Task Manager too, please consider logging in safe mode and carry out the task.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your advice but the virus is in safe mode too.
OK I got the task manager to run. The only processes that are there are ctfmon.exe, csrss.exe, explorer.exe, taskmgr.exe, and winlogon.exe. Please advise what to do next. Thanks
Using DOS Prompt, go to "<system drive>:\windows\syswow64" folder. E.g. c:\windows\syswow64
Type "dir /p" and check if the file adbcnsl.exe is listed. If file not found try checking c:\windows\system32
If listed type "del adbcnsl.exe".
Goto Task Manager, Switch to "Processes" tab, click "Show processes from all users" button.
Locate "stdrt.exe" process, right click and select "Properties" menu.
In the properties window, make note of the "Location" in "General" tab.
Now kill that process.
Open the location where "stdrt.exe" is located and delete the file "stdrt.exe". Sometime it can be found under multiple folder inside temp folder starting with "mprt_".
Goto registry editor and search for "stdrt.exe", delete all the keys which contain that entry.
Now restart the machine and you should not be able to see the "stdrt" process.
