JS. Seeker virus

I received a popup message from my NAV informing me that the "JS. Seeker" virus was detected and that a repair could not be done. I ran a full system scan with NAV and no virus was detected. I then did a search for the file names "homereg111.reg prefs.js" (as instructed on the Symantec website) and no such files were found. Am I safe or should I be concerned? (I have XP with Norton SystemWorks 2002 + ZoneAlarm)

What options do you have selected when a virus is detected(delete,rename,quarantine)? Just for safety, and because I am paranoid, I would do an on-line scans from Macafee, TREND MICRO, Panda, or one of your choice, just to make sure it is OK. I would also install a 30 day anti-trojan program and run its scans(Tauscan, TDS, TROJAN REMOVER. All the best!

it was probably in a temporary internet file (browser cache) and has since been removed. do an online search, like http://housecall.antivirus.com
