Virus Locations

[DefragMyHead]

Can I delete these extensions to get rid of these viruses? with out screwing up my comp?

C:\System Volume Information\_restore{5D900FC1-2A13-4675-8EFF-910E2658E927}\RP220
C:\ System Volume Information\_restore{5D900FC1-2A13-4675-8EFF-910E2658E927}\RP260

those are the original locations. the names are A0024474.exe and A0032821.exe, respectively.

The third one's original location is:
C:\Documents and Settings\Nick\Application Data\?ystem

and has the name as msiexec.exe. that one sounds neccessary.

thanks guys.

msiexec.exe is Microsoft Installer files. Do not delete them.

A0024474.EXE is a trojan, just google it to find out.

A0032821.EXE is a trojan, just google it to find out.

so can I delete those last two? and I just leave msiexec.exe infected?

Sorry the the late reply.

Are you deleting them manually, or is the antivirus suggesting it?

You could always delete the first 2 weird ones, and keep MSIEXEC.EXE in quarantine.

avast did not heal any of them, so theyre all just sitting quarantined right now but me, being a bit OCD, has the urge to purge my system of those lil fu####s! so yes, I am (wanting to delete them manually) and no it was not 'suggested.'
thanks talldude!

I check show hidden files and folders in my computer, but it says System Volume Information is empty and when I try to open it it says System Volume information is "not accessible: acess denied."...?
