no there is no way to get those files back unless you take sdit to a pro to restore those files. the system restore program on windows xp will not restore them. i had the same problem-as i repair computer- maleware stays in computer til you do a clean swipe.(sometimes it does)
wish you luck. -another tip for you... keep all your important files in a new folder inside your primary drive(if you have a secondary drive keep the files in there) .
this way if you have to install windows again you will not have that same problem-your files will be safe and secure.
hope this helps, you can also email me at compgeek20000@yahoo.com for more help.
