These 3 files ARE the virus
(http://www.lhric.org/netwrk/virus/d/datom.html) Let AVG
delete them they serve no other legitment purpose on you
r PC.
>From the link above
W32.Datom.Worm exists as three files:
Msvxd.exe
Msvxd16.dll
Msvxd32.dll
These files are located in the %Windir% folder.
NOTE: %Windir% is a variable. The worm locates the
Windows main installation folder (by default this is
C:\Windows or C:\Winnt) and copies itself to that
location.
The tasks in each file have likely been separated in an
attempt to avoid heuristic detection:
Msvxd.exe simply runs Msvxd16.dll.
Msvxd16.dll adds a reference to Msvxd.exe to the registry
and then runs Msvxd32.dll.
Msvxd32.dll enumerates network shares and copies all
three files to those shares into the %Windir% folder and
adds a reference to Msvxd.exe in the Run= line in
Win.ini.
