I have been infected with a virus which makes files called mcc.exe gotgo.exe and winstall.exe on my desktop and other places. I have tried running numerous virus scans, all which have apparently worked, but it keeps coming back. The first symptoms were seeing the files on the destop and, when the compter boots up, this popup comes up, turns off my internet explorer security and tries to download a trojan horse. I've heard about this HiJackThis Program, but I don't know how to use it. can somebody please help?
