FuChelle 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 I just did a Google search for this and it sounds like it might be spyware, not a virus.What you could do to try and get rid of it is to reboot your computer into safe mode, run a scan with AVG again and then see if you can delete the files while your in safe mode.If that doesn't work, another option would be to locate the files on your computer and manually delete them yourself.

scab_dog 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 I had the same problem, If I tried to delet it manually, it comes back, so I used Ad-Aware, And Spy Ware Search And Destroy, I moved the virus to a vault so its not bothering me, as FuChelle said its a spyware, I think the same so if you want to dedelte it get AVG Professional or Spy Ware Search and Destroy. Hope that helps you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
