Removed Artemis and false virus alerts, now no rundll32.exe

I use Windows XP Home edition. For the past 2 days, I was receiving false alerts "XP Security Services" that my computer has been attacked. I used Stinger from McAfee and removed the fake alert virus and the virus of Artemis. However, now I have no rundll32.exe. I can't access MS Office, paint, and it does not recognize my CD/DVD drive. I don't have a Windows XP disk, the PC was already installed with it when I bought it. Any help would be appreciated.

Follow the instructions below.

Click on the link below. Download the rundll32 file (uploaded by me if it's safer). Save the file to your desktop. Right-click on the file and choose copy. Now click on start > run > paste the following command. c:\Windows\System32 > Ok. When the folder opens, you see a message that these files are hidden. In the left pane, click on the link to view the contents of this folder, as shown in the image on the second link below. Once the content is visible, right-click in the free space in the system32 folder and choose Paste. If you are prompted to replace an existing file, click Yes. Close all windows.

Click on start > run > type cmd > Ok. On the command line, right click and paste the following code exefile = assoc.exe > press ENTER. Close command prompt. Now try to open any executable file (a game or any application). Be advised, the file download will expire after 3 days. This is the result of the use of the free version of filemail.com.
