    I seem to have gotten some sort of bug. Everytime I attempt to access this folder winxp pops up with a virius warning. I have run my virus protection as well as a spy ware program. I even tried Kermlin secure delete to remove it. No matter what I do it comes up with the same exact warning. HELP!

    WinXP (in my experience) doesn't give virus warnings. It could be that the folder has been locked. Right-click and go to properties and try to change it's attributes. Try to delete it in Safe Mode. Or boot into Recovery Console using your XP CD and delete it from there.... I've never heard of 'Kremlin' but there are several apps available that will mark the folder for deletion upon rebooting the PC; check in the Drive Utilities or Drive Cleaners section here at MG.... 'DeleteFileUponReboot' is one I've used in the past.... good luck!
