ost_uid0="Elena"]Well, I use norton and I set it to scan compressed files (zip files) and hidden files...I don't know who told you you have to reformat your whole computer...but that's a lie. I had a virus on my computer like 2 times and it tripled itself to other files and I just scanned my computer with the settings above and I was ok....I had to do it overnight...but that's better then reformatting...the only thing that sucks about norton is that you have to pay for telephone support...but you can get online support for free.[/quote]
I told him to do that

and it was only if he couldn't clean the virus...
