  2. might have a virus

    It sounds like you either; a. have a very terrible virus, or b. have a ton of screwed up programs.
    Yes, if you run the XP cd and click the Repair option, you will NOT lose any files.

  3. Clean the Virus

    Hi,

    Virus infection usually happens on a computer when it is exposed to an infected website or removable devices. For us to help you clean the malware on your device, we would need you to answer the following questions:

    • Which build and version of Windows are you using?
    • Did you encounter any error messages related to having a virus infection on your device?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest running any available antivirus software on your PC. It would be very helpful to us if you could also provide the result of the antivirus scan process.

    Looking forward to your response.

  4. i need opinions on this file which could be a virus

    I know there is a virus on my computer, but my antivirus(McAfee) can not see/identify the virus.

    You can always supplement your anti-virus or get a second opinion by performing an

    Online Virus Scan
    .....ESET is one of the more effective online scanners.
