Help Help pleaseeee.
AVG scan has told me that I have a Trojan Virus "Trojan Horse Startpage.4.AL" in file
"C:\windows\system32\notepad.exe".
I am using a one year old Dell desktop 4600
with windows XP.
Can someone tell me how to take this out as they say I need this file to run Windows.
Thanks

Although...notepad.exe is the target of other Worms/Trojans, so you may have more than one infection.

Thank you for the solution. Sorry about the delay in answering but we had a bad storm and Sympatico (Canada) took four days to change a modem
