Comment: About every day, my norton antivirus gives me a virus found alert, the type being a generic trojan horse named ~s~.exe, in my Windows directory. I've searched the web and virus dictionaries and found nothing about any file named ~s~.exe. I keep close track of my running processes and there are no suspicious processes running. I've searched the registry for ~s~, as well as my harddrive for any files containing ~s~ and havent found a single entry, except antivirus logs and quarintines. I don't know how this file keeps getting copied into my hard drive, but its making me very paranoid.
