I have approx. 4000 tftp files showing on the server with 0 file size. Can these be deleted without effecting the system?

My virus scanner shows one of these to be the location of a virus that it keeps quarenteening and I would like to trash them all if they are problems.

This is a sign of the Nimda virus. Check out Norton for removal tools.

If all else fails there is the draconian remedy of reformatting the machine. Hopefully you won?t have to go that far.

If any of your devices are using BootP, then leave the files on your server.
