Since I studied electrical engineering, not plumbing, to me it was always Rosin Core or Silver Solder. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp

Note the names and locations of infected files. | 3. Boot from something like Ultimate Boot CD | <http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/>, and delete the infections. | Turn System Restore back on when disinfected. John, the fisrt time I have seen you post here :-) Actually, not a good idea as if you are dealing with a file infecting virus then you will have *numerous* legiimate files being deleted and thus a corrupted OS that is no longer bootable. Either you use an anti virus and "clean" the infected files or, wipe and reinstall/re-image. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp

I was specifically referring to virus files that are _not_ part of necessary executables. When necessary parts of the OS are infected, then I restore them from backup, which I think it preferable to trying to disinfect them, all too often an imperfect process. -- John "Assumption is the mother of all screw ups."
