recently my system was attacked by three viruses
1. love.exe.
2. aaa.exe
3. important.exe
they were cleaned using nod32 anti virus
however after they were removed none of the applications seem to work
i tried installing acrobat reader
and it would show rundll32.exe not found
also when i try to run any system tools
it still shows that message
even when i open c:
it shows the same
what shall i do to remove this problem
i have already formatted my system and re-installed windows once.

You still have this problem after a clean install?
Hard to believe, but now that the format has already occurred, you've already started off on a clean slate.
Any particular error messages after the format?

Merely re-installing the OS will not clean the infection if the infected files reside within the same folder OR if they're in a separate folder on a separate partition.
You need to run a FULL and thorough system scan *and* scan within compressed files.
Perform a clean install of your OS *after* eliminating all traces of infected files.

Re-installing the OS removes the viruses from the System Drive only.
Most of the recent virus create autorun.inf in your drives, and the moment your drive is opened, the virus is again started.
So after your reinstall, if you open a drive by double-click, it will install the virus again.
If you want to remove the traces, enable Show Hidden Files, Show Protected Operating System files AFTER REINSTALLING, type the drive letter in the address bar, for example D:
Then remove the autorun.inf and the associated executable file (see for open= inside autorun.inf).
This is the best way to clean such viruses.
If you don't care about your data, you may do a full disk format. This will remove every virus infection.
