Three days ago, one of our computer club members contacted me on the same
problem. I installed the McAfee Stinger virus & worm removal tool and struck
a goldmine. At the end of the scan, the report showed:
Number of clean files: 44230
Number of infected files: 612
Number of files repaired: 19
Number of files deleted: 601
Stinger is available from: http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/
For additional portection, I installed Firefox browser, Ad-aware SE, Windows
XP Service Pack 2, and turned on Windows Firewall. The next day she purchased
and installed a router/firewall.
