Deleted file keeps returning

[pduncan]

Hi,
First time on this forum and I hope someone can help. Not sure if I have Malware, virus, or what is happening. A few days ago I created a "New Folder" on my desktop. I downloaded a few free clips of porn (won't do that again!) into it from a site, but the clips could not be located in the folder. I deleted the folder from my desktop, but now every time I open up Windows Media player, the folder reappears on my desk top empty. Can anyone tell me what is going on? I'm worried that I have something on my computer that I shouldn't have. I do have Zone Alarm Security Suit, but nothing shows up as a problem. Thanks.

hi pduncan,

need a hjt log as a starting point.

HiJackThis log

* Downloads:
* Please make sure you have the latest version. HJT 1.99.1
* http://www.downloads.subratam.org/hijackthis.zip
* If you are unfamiliar with zip programs get HijackThis.exe here:
* http://www.merijn.org/files/HijackThis.exe

* First put hijackthis into a permanent folder.
* Do this first - go to C: and create a new permanent folder.
Example C:\AntiSpyWare or C:\hijackthis
* This is necessary to ensure you have backups should anything go wrong.
* Then put (or download - choose "save" not "run") the hijackthis.exe file in this folder.
If you downloaded a zipped HJT file unzip it to the permanent folder so you have C:\hijackthis\hijackthis.exe.
* Example of the wrong way:
C:\DOCUME~1\Name\LOCALS~1\Temp\Temporary Directory for hijackthis.zip\HijackThis.exe
* Running hjt from the wrong folder may delay assistance as your helper will have to ask for a new log.

If in doubt use this link to get HijackThis.
Save it to your desktop and then double-click to run it.
It will install the program in c:\program files\HijackThis.

* Double click HijackThis.exe.
* Hit None Of The Above, just start the program.
* Hit Scan.
* When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
* Click that, save the log somewhere, and copy/paste in this thread.
