Norton Antivirus detected Adware.CDT but can't delete it. I have run all the suggested tests (Adaware, Spybot, Shredder, Windows Update, etc.) but Norton's still finds the infection. Symantec's help center advised to manually remove the file but the file isn't where it's supposed to be. I then unhid all files and was able to delete it but now Norton's finds another file. Here is the logfile from Hijack This:

Symantec also instructs to delete certain registry items using "regedit" but they're entries and values to delete aren't there.

I know it's alot, sorry...I appreciate your help.

Sincerely,

Sam

Well, here is what happened: I already read and performed all tests on the beginner page before the previously posted hijack log. I found some online advice that seemed to work.

For XP pro:

1. Right-click on a folder and select the "Explore" option.

2. Under the "Tools" button at the top of the screen select "Folder Options"

3. Select the "Advanced" button

4. Click the "View" tab and check the "Show hidden files and folders"

5. Click "Ok"

6. Run Norton's Antivirus again to find the infected file's pathname

7. Search and Destroy: my file was there this time and I was able to delete it.

NOTE: The Norton run found another infected file, but now it finds nothing. I never saw any adware the whole time, but it bothered me knowing something might be there.

Resolved...for now.
