Your Text: Insert Slimies » Insert UBB Code » Close Last Tag \| All Tags UBB Help	The situation: AVG (updated today) ran this morning, found a Trojan installer and deleted it, but didn`t finish the scan. When finishing the scan, it gets to a temporary internet folder, and freezes at a file called 5.jpg. I ran Adaware (updated today) which didn`t seem to notice this file,, Spybot which freezes at the same point. When you navigate to the folder containing said file and try to open it, "explorer has generated errors and will shutdown..." Re-boot in safe mode, same result. Run a search for the file (Start>>Search) it generates errors and shuts down. I`ve deleted cookies, and temporary internet files (although thes folders seem to have been skipped.) If you try to delete the entire folder, it warns you that it`s a system file and asks if you`re sure, then generates errors and shuts down. I`m running Win2000 Pro SP2 on it`s own partition. Question : Is there a way to get rid of this piece of Sh*t without a format ? Loading...
