I then updated the antivirus through live update and the Symantec website.......after which i ran a complete system scan......the antivirus was now able to delete the problem and repair the situatiuon........since then....the auto protect keeps popping the Virus alert which reads
VIRUS ALERT
High risk
Norton Antivirus has detected and removed a virus from your computer
Object Name C:\svchosta.exe
Virus name W32.HLLW.Gaobot
Action taken The file was automatically deleted
on clicking the OK tab on this alert.....it disappears for a while and then the alert pops up once again in a short while.......this is been happnin for the past few days.......every 2 mins the alert pops up and i have to click OK........
Plz help me......is it that the virus threat hasn't been dealt with properly?......or is it that the virus keeps invading my sysetme even after it has been deleted??......how do i get rif of this???
