Hi,
I'm using AVG and it located viruses that Norton couldn't. The program located and deleted two viruses on it's own. However two remain. They are described as follows:
C:\wx.cab\explorer.exe= Infected embedded file
C:\wx.cab = Infected archive

What do the messages mean and how do I get rid of both nasties.
Thanks,
Yolanda

Hi ariel7a

Let us take a closer look at what is running on your PC. We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool (HiJackThis) and post a log back here with the results.

Click the HijackThis Guide in my signature, download it and follow the instructions in the guide.

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.
