Help
I have been fighting viruses on two computers for way too long now...computer one is a dell mini and computer 2 is .a toshiba full size. I gave up on computer 1 and reformatted and re-installed xp. Computer 2 is a work in progress, but I am losing that battle too. When I was looking over the registry of computer #2 I noticed some know virus .exe files, but those same files are not found on my c drive, but to make my confusion worse, they are also in the registy of my computer #1 that has been reformatted and xp reinstalled with disk that came w ith computer. The section of the registry is the shell compatibility. Would an antivirus put something there as some sort of prestrike? Neither c: drive shows those files. (mswin.exe & trace.exe) are just two of the scary ones. I will make another post for all of the other #2 issues. Any info on this would be great. I have done some online scans with both computers at microsoft live.
