I have a virus issue with one of our staffs network domain user profiles. Their cumputer had a virus. I reformated the c drive and reinstalled windows xp pro. When I log back on as their network domain profile I still have traces of the virus. If I log on the same computer with and ofthe profile, no virus. If I log on to another computer using the profile with the virues issue,there is no trace of the virus. I have been lookingwere xp would store netwok domain profile data so I could clean that out.

Sounds like you didn't format the drive. But, why format for just a virus problem? If you're running a Domain, why aren't you running an Enterprise Anti-Virus program?

I had to reformat and reinstall the OS because my Enterprise virus scan software could not clean or delete all of the infected files.Scan access to the files was denied because the OS was using the files. Also the original virus on the computer was blocking me from loging in as safe mode. This prevented me from doing a command line scan without Windows running.
