I think i may have come in contact with the system32.exe virus. I've run
adaware, and spybot, and Hijack this, and it isnt on my task manager at the
mo, but thats not to say its not there is it? I heard its a trojan type
thing, but no slow down of my system has occured just yet.

Is thee anyway of making sure i have completely got rid of it? what will it
do to my system? i dont want to have to do ANOTHER clean install!

1 - avg antivirus -- www.grisoft.com
2 - use WinMX, it's much better than that kazza spyware. And not to mention
the brilliant digital software that turns your computer into a server for
brilliant to use at it own will, and the only real way to remove the
software completely is to format.
3 - no need for that language, you were given some good advice. Stay out of
the "bad neighborhoods" on the internet and you'll be fine.

You don't need to do another installation. Read
