          Standard anti Virus mode

          If you have a virus thats proving difficult to remove, its generally because there are active components of it running while you are trying to clean it.

          Try booting into safe mode and then running your anti-virus tools and see if that improves things. One of the things that happens in safe mode is that only a smaller set of startup items run, usually ones needed by the OS and created by MS.

          If safe mode doesn’t work

          Download and burn a CD with this bootable antivirus program and run it on the infected computer.

        and its on the NETWORK..not on one PC so i cant just install an anti-virus and will delete it..its not that easy, the files inside the Network Drives” are infected also and the server runs “windows server 2003” which its not easy to find the right software to disinfect these files..
