This sounds very much like a virus or malware. Reboot in Safe

Mode, then delete everything in the WinNT\Temp folder.

Not all anti-virus scanners catch everything. I recommend also using

AVAST! and Kasparsky to scan, and if anything is found that they cannot

remove, look to symantec and mcaffee for removal tools. If all else

fails, format and reinstall the operating system.

 

Also, get the critical security updates from ms, run a hardware

firewall, turn off all java, java script, activex, flash, etc, etc, etc,

NEVER use IE or any MS mail or news client, and daily curse the name of

billgates [curses cencored].

Quaestor,

 

I am sure that its running on startup plus, the process is running when you try

to delete it

 

CTRL + SHIFT + ESC to bring up Task Manager

Processes tab

End the process

 

Now delete the file from the TEMP folder

 

Next:

 

Click START | PROGRAMS | STARTUP

Is there a link to the file there? If so, delete it

 

Next:

 

START | RUN | Type 'regedit' (without quotes) & press ENTER

Naviage to:

 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

 

Highlight the RUN key in the left pane. Is there a shortcut to the that file in

the TEMP folder? If so, right-click the entry in the right pane & delete it

 

Close the registry editor & reboot when ready
