    I found a w32/downloader.AFOP in my system volume information. After reading your stuff I realise that it can be removed by turning on/off the system restore.

    BUT, after doing all the scans recommended in RUN & READ ME FIRST something came up in the Panda scan.

    Now I wonder how I get rid of that stuff?

    I've run through all the scans suggested and I'm attaching three files.

    thanks for your help

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    You need to attach the other two logs that were requested in the READ ME.

    runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
    newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat

    The only item that Panda is finding that I would question is:
    And this may just be something you installed. In the log from ShowNew the uninstall programs list shows a program names Switch Uninstall. Do you know what this is?

    Switch is program that converts audio files.

    so then, the stuff that sits in the system volume information and shows up in the real time protector on F-prot, (my anti virus) should go away when I turn off system restore? right?
