turns out his friend has this virus called AlphaAntivirus...its a malware program and it was blocking all of our attempts to download malware removers...it was crazy...i did everything form having them end processes to deleting this program under local drive...
eventually outsmarted it by zipping malwarebytes and emailing it to his computer and installed it from there...
just got off the phone with him and its up to 200 malicious objects and counting
once thats done im gonna have him download and install avg antivirus free ed., and ad-aware anniversary ed.
he should be good after that...

yikes! I hate cleaning peoples pc's, it so time consuming and some virus's are evil bastards. I did a repair on one that even with a 4hr wipe in dos it still rear it's ugly head. I had to replace the drive and chucked the old one.
That's why I'm on a Mac, a lot more stable less problems though it's more expensive but less headaches....
