Hi,

Wondering if you could assist me, I have a problem with one of my PC's running Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2.

The problem is that when ever I log on to the PC, an error message is displayed stating Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.... .

I have read through the user guide and managed to clean at least 2 trogans, including win32puper_e(trg) using Antivirus Software.

Running ewido, doesnt report any more errors.

Running Adaware, this seems to be taking a very long time. It identifies 2 pieces of malware, as indicated in the log below:
