Need help removing Trojan-PSW.Win32.Kates.c
Greetings!
Upon running a kaspersky scan, I detected the presence of Trojan-PSW.Win32.Kates.C on my computer. The scan report pointed to the following file: C:\Documents and Settings\Ryan\Local Settings\xuwtwhf.ewg, however, when I try to manually delete it, it instantly returns. Your help would be most appreciated!
