Hi everybody.
New to group.
If this is the wrong forum, let me know.
Here's my problem, I was cleaning up my HD and found a video, played it to see what it was, and yes it was one of those. Anyway when I tried to delete it, it gave me the "this file cannot be deleted" message. So I ran it through "Secure Shredder" and that got rid of it. But then a new file popped up.
Just some info on the file, it was in a folder I created just for my downloads.
The new file had a new name and extension and would not delete. Every time I ran it through Shredder it would come back with new name and extension.
These are some examples:
speizuap.ydk
dwcytvbs.glp
sdecleen.jml

I got to 15 and quit. I'm concerned it could be a virus. I'm going to try some other things, but any help would be appreciated. Let me know what info you need from my PC.
Thanks
Iain60

Hello Iain60,

Please see this forum's sticky which also includes guidelines for this forum and instructions in post #2 on how to provide preliminary "DDS" logs used for analysis.
"BEFORE You POST"(Please read this Procedure Before Requesting Assistance) (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

Then start a new topic providing the logs and a volunteer analyst will advise you when available. :)

Best regards.
