c:\recycler
d:\recycler
etc

hidden system file that seems to be the recycle bin. My recycle bin disappeared from the desktop yesterday. A system restore seemed to sort that out. Most of the forum help I found online wasn't terribly helpful though I think it may have been a corrupted registry entry or something.
 System restore is back on! :)

get NOD32 from www.eset.co.uk

i have it on my 3 PCs on a 3 year purchase which works out at about £14/year per PC. It is an absolutely excellent anti virus product.

TL.
It's a hidden system file.

hello :byebye:

I had EXACTLY the same problem ... searched with google and found lots of "smiler" problems but not exactly like the one I had =\ ...

anyway, earlier I did like what u did and deleted the files in "C:\RECYCLER" ...



and then I did an "in-depth analysis" with NOD32 ... now it's on 94% and seems that my pc is clean =)

by the way ... I used this method for deleting:


maybe it helped somehow... :)

and also deleted 2 files from windows startup:




that's all =) ... and sorry for posting lots of screen shots ^^; ...


best regards :byebye:

I don't think you're out of the woods yet. I thought I was clean but a subsequent scan found the same worms. Take a look in C:\ and see if you have aabababab.exe, joe.exe, essay.exe, eaea.exe, getme.exe, abca.exe. Then check them out. I discovered they're nasty.(sorry about the techie talk) :)  So I've deleted them and await another scan result after a reboot.

Very nearly. The only difference is it was myphotos.zip If it is ONLY MSN messenger, I've returned to Windows Messenger
