This VBS/Stages worm modifies the registry key values so that it can launch at the time of restart.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices\
ScanReg="C:\WINDOWS\WSCRIPT.EXE C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SCANREG.VBS"

For removing this VBS/Stages worm from your computer system I will suggest you to use MacAfee antivirus software and using Norton antivirus software is also a good option. But these antivirus software comes for a high price. If want a free solution for removing this VBS/Stages worm from your computer system, then you can go for avast antivirus software. Home edition of the avast antivirus software is available for free on its official site.
