The title is off a nasty worm which i received and which you can see rather disturbing info about from Visit My Website
Stupidly my avast anti virus was temporarily turned off. Now I could do with some simple advice.
So I ran two scans on avast anti virus and twice picked up infected '.exe.' files including my iedw.exe (internet explorer), google earth, and the exe for 'cntrl alt del' (which i cannot access anymore)
This worm is spreading and of course I am left with no choice but to delete the infected file.
So now i have lost some important 'exe.' files my question is what do I do?
Do i consider a reformat?
Is there a way to retrieve these files and/or just delete the 'infection' so to speak.
My regards
Nate
