I cant or dont dare go any further. I really cant continue with the avant virus check and since this virus was renamed from the swizzer.gen.b virus I dont really know if I can delete what is in the virus chest. I did a search on the swizzer virus and yes here is where I found it. http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=150650
What should i do at this point.
Hi

So that is virus here:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{C3586A75-A0B3-47E6-8AD9-E1F1E1AC21BC}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\Hotmail - Inbox.dbx\Fw- See Attachment.eml#53217200\GET-RX-MEDS-HERE.htm#1253726270

You will need to delete corresponding mail via Outlook Express :)
well it has spread and it says when I run parts at a time on Avast .That certain file are corrupted. I havent a clue now what to do. How do I get rid of it before it infects my whole system. It seems to be running away from me. :(
Hi

Where it has spread?

If you mean this folder it's natural as avast! uses it during scanning:

C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\_avast4_

You can empty it.

If it's still in
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{C3586A75-A0B3-47E6-8AD9-E1F1E1AC21BC}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\Hotmail - Inbox.dbx and you don't have any important mails there, you might consider deleting that file.
