Okay,here's my story.Last night I found I had alot of viruses in my computer,(A worm,backdoor,a hacker,two trojans,and a winfixer) and I came here to get rid of them and did thanks to AVG Anti Spyware.

I got a winfixer in my Driver File(C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\_WFF.sys) and on another file(C:\Program Files\Common Files\WinSoftware\_WFF.exe)I want to know if it's safe to delete these files,or are they something crucial?

Hi Draga X...

This file can be legit, however, I suspect yours is not as it is often associated with winfixer infections.

Let's let the malware experts deal with this one.

Please go to the Malware Forum and follow the instructions you'll find there.

That will give you several steps that will help you clean up 70 percent of all problems by yourself. If at the end of the process you are still having difficulty--and you may not be-- post a hijackthis log in THAT forum. Do Not reply to or "bump" your own topic...if it shows a reply, it may be overlooked as one that is being worked on.

If you are still having problems after getting a clean bill of health from the malware expert, please return to this thread.
