624258 2007-12-25 08:00:00 Right mouse / properties, on my computer on the desktop if its there.

System restore tab. Tick the option

If you want to reformat, the system may have a partition on it to restore it.

You'll have to reinstall all of the updates after.

Or you'll need the XP cd, or whatever cd to reinstall Windows.

Then you'll have to reinstall the updates after.

624261 2007-12-25 20:43:00 I would disable system restore first.

Then reboot, then see if its still there.

If you havent disabled SR yet.

624262 2007-12-25 21:35:00 Ok, I dissable system restore and reboot but it is turned back on when I reboot. Also, what is AMVO.EXE ?? JOYBEBA6679 (10686)
624263 2007-12-25 21:41:00 Get ccleaner if you havent got it yet. It might be running on startup.

Then go to tools / startup. Highlight and delete the amvo.exe entry.

That amvo.exe looks like it belongs to a trojan (www.prevx.com)

I would also get trojan remover in my sig, install it, update it, then click on scan. See if that picks whatever up and removes it.

Or post a hijackthis log.

Leave system restore disabled for now.

624264 2007-12-25 21:59:00 If there's an entry in add/remove programs called trojan.covert.sys-exe uninstall it too.

If Trojan.Covert-Sys-Exec is running press ctrl-atl-del and kill its process.
