I was recieving the Klez virus daily for a good 3 weeks . I have my Norton Anti Virus up to date and enabled. I also am aware that after you recieve this virus (using Outlook Express) in Windows Me you have to disable the system restore utility to purge the virus from your restore\temp folder. My ? is that after I recieve this error and its isolated in qurantined items , I then delete from there and run a hard drive scan. Sometimes it shows up in the restore\temp folder and other times its not there ? Anyone know whats up with that ? Thanks Nick

Thanks for the advice . I have the preveiw pane removed in outlook express, also when my incoming mail starts to download my Norton Anti-Virus quarantines the virus . I then delete the email and the infected file off my system. Some times it will infect your Restore \Temp folder in Windows Me . The only way to get ride of it with out deleteing the restore utility, is to disable system restore . This will purge all of the temp restore points . You then can go back and re-enable your system restore utility. Just keep in mind you lose all of your restore points.The system should start creating new restore points from that date on ! Take Care,Nick

McAfee can clean it.If you get messages in your inbox (emails?) this doesn't mean you're infected.To be sure download this little tool,ANTIKLEZ, and scan your PC : http://www.webattack.com/download/dlantiklez.shtml
