I have found vundo in my Windows System 32 folder under mlJCumgh.dll. I cant remove the file, of course, and I ran 2 Vundo removers. I have even tried using safe mode. McAfee gives me an indication that the virus is there but it cant remove it. Can some please give me some advice?. Thanks for your help!
