| I have the above trojan according to Norton 2003. I have scanned several
| times in normal and safe mode but am unable to remove the file. With Norton
| it finds the file but cannot quarantine it or delete it. It is labelled
| c:\windows\repair\infodb.dll I understand it is an adware and I am getting
| the following advert comming up routinely
| http://www.winantivirus.com/index-pro.php?aid=mdwavtop&lid=virus . I do not
| want to contact them as I am unsure of what efect that might have.
|
| The microsoft website has nothing on search this adware trojan.
|
| Any clues?
