Hi Fitness Gal,

Try deleting the file; it is entirely malicious, and repairing it will not
work. If you are getting an access denied error, delete the file from safe
mode. You can get into safe mode by pressing either F8 or DELETE while
booting your machine (it varies by computer.)

Hope this helps. Feel free to post back if you need more help.
