Comment: I think my virus program (AVG -grisoft) is unable to remove this properly, because everytime I boot up it shows up again. Some observations: - it seems to show up in c:\temp\installer.exe (not sure that's the exact exe name). Deleting the whole folder doesn't work...it just gets created again. - autoexec.nt seems to get deleted as well, which makes running 16bit programs impossible, until you replace it. Any help would be appreciated.

Reply: (edit)I would suggest to disable system restore and then use Spybot S&D Make sure to up-date it before using it.
1-Check for problems
2-Fix Problems
3-Immunize in safe mode. Don't forget to start up system restore after the removal
If you need a simple solution, try mine. I try to give advise on things that have happened to my PC. Changes in registry can be FATAL! Glad to have a chance to help you.
