McAffe detected the New Malware.u virus but I can not clean, delete or quarantine. I purchased Noadware and that did not get rid of it.

The message from McAfee is Trojan detected. The file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Stupid... is infected with the New Malware.u Trojan and can not be cleaned. If I try to delete it I get an error message.

I did a search of my C: drive and found three files. I was able to delete two of them. The 3rd one was a folder called stupid frag. When I open it there is an application called PLAN AIM.

I was told there is a way to go behind the scenes and clean up C: drive, but I am not sure how to do this and will it cause me to lose all of my files that are currently on my pc.

My operating System is Windows XP

Please help

Please Click here!, and follow the recommendations in the guide.

If you're still having trouble, We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool, Hijack This. Follow the instructions in step five of this guide, and reply here with your log.

Most of what Hijack This lists 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.
