:( A virus icon with a picture of something like a cat with the word JPG over it is taking over programs in my computer. Once that icon is in place of the old icon I can"t open it anymore. What should I do.

I don&#39;t know about a "moron" but everyone should have an anti-virus software or means of one online. <_<

"moron" is a little harsh but he did post this in HardwareWorld. It has nothing to do with hardware. <_<

I used Micro but there are four files I can&#39;t delete and they keep spreading.
