Help, I too have the same problem. Plus every programme I launch gives me a *.exe is not a valid win32 programme error. My "old faithfull" pc needs saving. :-(

It wouldnt let me download others' either, such as PC Threat. I just kept trying to find 1, that allowed me to download such as this site. We'll see if it allows removal too now. The last virus wouldnt allow removal from add/remove programs they get trickier everytime! Thankfully there's free help thru sites like these.thanks very much! Andrea E
