bookmarker.c virus

I seem to have attracted the bookmarker.c virus, which was missed by my freebie AntiVir program. As this gets into the _restore folder, a simple system restore doesn't help. Does anyone know of a free cleaner/stinger/disinfectant that will remove this bug? The only one I have found is Symantec's, which only seems to be available if you buy their whole program. I don't have the knowledge to go into the MSDOS files to remove it at source, so need something that will be quite user-friendly. Can anyone help?

Thanks to BigBob for his help, but my searches have revealed nothing. The only programs I can find using any search engines appear to be ones I have to pay for. (IE I have to buy the whole Norton Antivirus 2004 edition just to fix this mionor inconvenience) What I am trying to find is a specific one-off fix, or help in amemding the _restore folder to get rid of it. Any clues anyone.
