I believe I have a virus. I just run a scan of all hardrive, and there was a n archive unable to be scanned as it was corrupted. The file is in Temporary InternetFiles\Content.IE5\I8YLB5S4\ica32 web[2].msi\Wfica.ocx.827545c6_7013_4DE1_8E6C_DAEE4C57F54A.

I also run a hijack this, from one of your advice on this page, and got a log I cannot yet post!


Any suggestions?????? Highly appreciated!

Seeing it is in the temp int files, why not download Ccleaner: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download....
and clean out all your junk files
also ATF Cleaner: http://www.majorgeeks.com/ATF_Clean...
That will also help to clean out junk files
Scan after that and see if you still have the problem

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results as it will help others.
