    You'll need to Disable System Restore to remove that trojan.

    Interesting, that behavour I've only see with XP where the file is put in the cache. I'll look into it you may need to disable WFP(windows file protection) temporarily to enable you to remove it.

    as to the program Slapper ... your going to have to give us a link to it as I cannot find it in the majorgeeks programs listings.

    as to the trojan thats in your system restore you will need to turn off system restore > reboot > scan again with your AV, if clear re enable system restore

    instructions for disabling and enabling system restore for winME http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=31668

    Dammit, I was looking for that but it's not showing up on the FAQ's forum for some reason!

    And it won't run on those systems because they don't support Raw sockets (and neither does SP2 either, incidentally).

    Cheers Star for the update... I had strange ideas of what slapper could be ;)


    to remove you may need to go into safe mode as I guess this app is now a running process. to enter safe mode either hold the CTRL key down at reboot or alt hit F8 a few times at reboot.
