Hi,

I'm infected with the Html.redlof.a virus, my norton anti virus can't repair the files, it just advises me to quarantine them.

The system files too have been infected, could someone please tell me how to get rid of this one...?

Thanks.

Welcome to windrivers !

Its one of those vb script viruses written by some spotty script kiddie :rolleyes:

Here's some 'destructions' for you from Symantec ;)

HTML.Redlof.A (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/html.redlof.a.html)

Its an 'old' one & has been around a fair old while (2002?) so why NAV can't 'get it' I don't know :rolleyes:, especially as the removal instructions are on their own flipping site !
