HELP ME DELETE THIS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

boot up in safe mode and delete the file yourself, press the f8 key as the puter boots up. try that. plus delete the files were you got the virus from, prolly something you d-loaded from kazaa

For one disable system restore. Then follow norton's instructions.

ok...
i followed exactly what that site said, i did disable system restore and done a full scan but the virus was deteced but couldnt be deleted..
\

now as for the other thing...

i have no idea with what program did that virus come with?

and under safe mode, I HAVENT TRIED YET, i will now....\

so when do i press the f8 key?

willing my pc is booting up?

thanx

start pressing the f8 key as soon as your keyboard lights flash, press like once every second, you should get to it then

Did you download the removal tool for that virus? Norton usually releases a removal tool.

no i didnt download the removal tool, can you help me find it on the site?

thanx

You can find more information about this virus here: http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...hllw.studd.html

I think you probably already visited that website though. I couldn't find the removal tool. Sorry. I guess it wasn't released with this virus.

The best way you can remove this tool is to follow the instructions on the website posted above. Print out the page and get to it. :)

Try this software you might succeed. Move on boot You can delete it after booting.
