    Hi there... Again. :) I've been in here before, but it's not my problem this time luckily. After two visits here before I've managed to clean up my own and my GFs web awareness. Thanks again for the previous help!! :)
    Here's the problem...

    My employer has had his computer infected by System Security 4.51 (he's an avid net poker player so I reckon he's been a bit inattentive and pressed a banner he shouldn't have), and I thought I'd try to give him a hand with removing it. Only had an hour and a half to look at it so far. Tried to look at a few removal guides etc. but what they tell me is impossible to do in this case it seems. The malware is stopping me from running .exe files and the task manager so I really can't seem to do anything on the computer. Don't really remember the specs, but it's an old PC running XP, prolly not updated since he got it seeing as he's not exactly a computer wizard. :p

    Anyways, was hoping you might point me to a guide that solves this or give me a way of going around the programs .exe block.

    Hope you can help me and thanks for helping us out here on the web.

    I was going to ask why this computer has no anti-virus software until I saw the amount of RAM in the system and figured it couldnt support it. So..you need more RAM and you need to install an AV program now.

    Use windows explorer to find and delete:
    c:\windows\tw23567.dat
    c:\documents and settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Programdata\15752034

    Now tell me what issues you still have, as the scans appear to have removed the malware.
