I have tried a couple of methods to remove this virus from my system and nothing seems to work. I have a feeling that it cannot delete the .dll file because it is zipped in a file in my Temporary Internet Files folder.

Will it get rid of the virus if I simply delete the .zip file? Or should I unzip the file in order to let Norton delete it? I don't know what will work and what will cause the least amount of damage to my poor compie...

Any suggestions would rock!

Hi Chikara,

Temporary Internet Files can be deleted via:
ControlPanel>Internet Options>General page
'Delete Files' (including off-line content)

Your Norton should be on top of the bad stuff, even if you unzip the file. But if it's having trouble, then just follow the procedure described here:
