i dont know. but i do know that if you try and delete it in regular mode you cant see thet virus and therefore you cant delete it. if you go into safe mode and run notron it should automaticly delete it

I just ran the file name you listed at both Norton and Trend Micro virus definitions and came up empty. Did a google search and and nothing there either. You sure you have it listed correctly? Did you look in Add/Remove Programs to see if it is listed? Best to do so from safe mode.

You could also boot into "safe mode with networking" and do an online scan with Housecall.

ok guys, thanks for the help, but as keeble said, when i restarted to start in safe mode an error of "missing file. this may cause explorer.exe not to work" or something to the effect poped up. then the system wouldn't load. i had to reinstall windows!
i also looked for that virus and found nothing. but the scanner picked it up so i dunno |
