What even if you try in safemode?
So you have followed synamtec's removal instructions:
Quote:1.Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
2. Update the virus definitions.
3. Restart the computer in Safe mode or VGA mode.
4. Run a full system scan and delete all the files detected as Trojan.Bookmarker.Gen.
5. Reverse the changes that were made to the registry.
6. Delete any bookmarks or links that the Trojan added.

You dont have to format drive C, the info on the Symantec page will fix your problem. If it does not you have incorrectly identified the trogan, or posibly have more than one infection. Plug away at it, its fixable.
To get "SafeMode" press F8 on startup command can be obtained by typing cmd or command.com in Start>Run
