    Have a Norton AV program that says it found a threat: W32.Spybot.Worm but can't remove or clean or delete the file in which the threat apparently resides. The name of the "bad" file is ipxmontr.exe. I tried Googling this file but really didn't find much of interest. Anyone know what it is? Whether or not I should try to remove it? HOW to remove (since Norton won't work)? HIJACK THIS?

    Thanks.
