Could that "windows / system32 / cmd.exe" be an infected one?

This morning SpySweeper informed me that it had quarantined a JSRedir-O
virus, but apparently not after it had done some damage. The only thing I
noticed right away is that SpySweeper no longer would run. After talking
to
their very helpful tech support, got the links to cleanup and reinstall,
now it
seems fine. I am going to run a full scan as soon as I log off here.
But one other thing has happened -- I have no DOS command box! Typing
CMD
in the run box makes my desktop icons flash off for a few seconds, then
flash back on with no DOS box. Navigating to windows / system32 / cmd.exe
also
does the same thing. Anyone have a clue on how to "fix" it? Or am I
resigned to never going to a DOS box again?
