I have a "spyshredder" virus and my norton tells me which files the virus has
created but it doesn't tell me where to find them for their manual removal.
Where do I find files with percent marks such as %UserProfile%
 
Names with % surrounding them are system environment variables.
If you type %UserProfile% in the start menu for example you will see what
the variable value actually is.
For example %Windir% shows as 'windows'.

If you open a cmd.exe or command window and type 'set', you will see all
your environment variables listed.
