I got a virus through MSN Messenger last night. I'm trying to get rid of it. I've updated Symantec AntiVirus and it deleted 3 w32 worm viruses (cute.pif, and two others I can't remember). However, it can't quarrantine or cleane the following file
Scan type: Auto-Protect Scan
Event: Threat Found!
Threat: W32.Spybot.Worm
File: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\hotkeysvc.exe
Location: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32
Computer: VALERIE

The virus put a bunch of files such as a toolbar, p*** sites, etc. on my laptop.
