Hi, I have the Win.95.1445 Spaces Virus on a CD-R. None of the infected files are able to run properly. Is there any way to get rid of this virus?

One way would be to copy the entire CD to your hard drive and change all file attributes from read only, then clean the virus. Then toss that CD.

Both above fixes will work. However, with this virus I've fount the trash can is the best resolution. This virus can be a bitch.

Well The files I need are on my hard drive. But they are read only. Whenever I run the applications it says "Too big to fit in memory." I download CROA and tried to clear read only attributes. However none of the folders and files are read only (there is no check mark in the read-only atribute box, but there is a green square.) What should I do?

Boot up with a clean, write-protected floppy and then run a full virus scan.
