hi everyone,

I’m having this weird problem where in I’m getting Norton alert saying that my files in C:\windows\temp\ files are infected.. I have tried the following things still the files get regenerated…
1)Deleted everything in the temp folder after restarting the files get regenerated..
2)Tried a disk cleanup.. still no go…
3)booted from safe, safe mode with command prompt tried to deleted was successful but again it regenerated once I boot back to desktop..
4) Deleted the entire folder..through MS-DOS prompt i.e. safe mode with command prompt did an attrib +h +s +r c:\windows\temp folder ..after doing this I restarted the computer but again those files got regenerated & still those files got regenerated…

I really getting frustrated with problem any help is more than welcome…
