Panda software has a online virus scanner that is free and it will remove the virus too. Good ratings from the computer geek magazines

Go to the top right where it says free online scan. Its found some viruses that my Nortons didn't find.

Then after your done you can go download Microsoft Antispyware (If your genuine) and I would suggest using Mcafee Antivirus, corporate/enterprise editions are best as they have all the home user crap removed. Adaware and Spybot do not protect from viruses effectively.

there is one called Sophos, Google it.

You may want to buy a new Norton, I think the installation will clear it and the registry.

if you want, pm me your address - I've got an extra copy of Norton 2005 that I can fire out to you.
