Scroll up-- what defs do you have now?

Mine are 000763-0. (But, it was fixed in 000762-5 too.)

(2) START, button, Find, F/F, "Tiki Lounge.htm"

(Use those quotes in the Find box.)

(3) R-Clk "Tiki Lounge.htm", & select to scan it.

(4) Do same for "WIN98_49.CAB".

(The quotes will be unnecessary.)

Those should scan clean-- no worm!

Yea. Probably that doesn't have to be done so often. When a virus tries

to get out of an archive, avast!'s On-Access Scanner should catch it.

But I do it, myself, now/then. I'm sure you are right to do it, & with a

Thorough, in this time of crissis, though-- with those pop-ups & all!

A month different in the dates? I guess it's possible. Are you Win98SE

or FE? Here are my dates again...

When I tried the on-site scan, all I got was dashes (-) after each virus

BUT, I'll keep that in mind about Authentium, thanks. Why don't you ask

Re: Trying to post, no success.

Double-click the CAB file. Does it open in WinZip or does it open in

Cabview? (If it opens in some other app, post back with its name.) If WinZip

opens, go to Action menu, Extract, and in the Extract dialogue, make sure

you put the files into a new "test" folder.

If Cabview opens, click Ctrl-A, then use File>Extract or

right-click>Extract. For this one, you'll need to have first created the new

"test" folder.

You mean Win98_49.cab might be corrupt? If you do not have WinZip, try

this...

(1) "START button, Programs, MS-DOS Prompt"

(2) Paste the following line to the C:\ Prompt...

EXTRACT /d E:\Options\Cabs\Win98_49.cab Tiki.htm

Here is the result I get? What did it say for you...?...

C:\>EXTRACT /d E:\Options\Cabs\Win98_49.cab Tiki.htm

Cabinet Win98_49.cab

04-23-1999 10:22:00p A--- 393 tiki.htm

1 File 393 bytes

NOTES:

(a) If your "Win98_49.cab" is in a different folder,

you'll have to type it in.

(b) To paste the above line, copy it out of this post,

& use the "Paste" button in the DOS box (3rd button).

Re: Trying to post, no success.

You won't be able to find it because it's well hidden, uses various names and is

integrated into your ISP's software. Users find out about it being installed after

they attempt to install a fw/av app, when up pops a message that you can not install

the product because another varied name same type is already installed and running.

That when they say WTF, I never had that installed and attempt to seek it out without

good results.

As previously mentioned, I have helped others out in their quest to seek and

destroy and it's not a walk in the park.

BTW, AT&T uses CA (Computer Associates) software and CA is a Partner of Authentium.

Here's a list of Authentiums Partners:

Re: Trying to post, no success.

I tried the extract thing it did not work

Another problem: What causes the folders changing types? Example: some of

my folders changed to Outlook Express like the Outlook Express is pictured

on the Desktop An envelope with an arrow around it. Mine did that while I

was using the computer I noticed it. Then I shut it down when I was done for

the night. When I re-started it the next day, the desktop was back to

normal.

a)

I know, I couldn't help being the lovable myself that I am :-)

b)

Even I do not have the patience to go through ALL the posts in

this thread, but if you post a **concise description** of the

current problem(s) as a direct follow up to this reply, I *WILL*

read it and see if I can think of anything.

Be aware, however, that the general consensus in this friendly

group is "never do ANYTHING thanatoid advises". (thanatoid is

never capitalized.)

Re: Trying to post, no success.

thanatoid,

Have you ever heard that SPS? Do you want a pity party? You came to the

wrong person. If you don't read the whole string then you do not know the

complete problem. No wonder they tell people not to take your advice.That

is, if in fact they do. I guess YOU have a real problem. Excuse me for

capitalizing your name!! In answer to doing a *concise description*, Excuse

me? I am not going to start a new string for every problem that starts up

during another problem just to satisfy your wishes.
