hi every1
I received the following virus error W32.HLLW.Studd. I made a full antivirus scan and deleted the file containing the virus whick solved my problem but i keep getting the following error when starting up my computer in both users; "Windows can not find C:\WINDOWS\system32\dust.exe please make sure you typed the name or path correctly." The dust.exe was the virus which i deleted but now this error appears every time i log in into my account. I think this got something to do with the start up programs. Any HELP will be greatly appreciated :)
 
Go to Start | Run | type msconfig You can uncheck it here but it's better
to find it and look to see where it is starting up from then go there and
delete it.

Go to Start | Run | type "regedit" (without quotes)

*********** Caution: Futzing with the Registry can be hazardous. Change
or delete the wrong thing and your machine will (at best) be crippled or (at
worst) never boot again without a complete re-install of your Operating
System ******************

Ensure that "My Computer" is highlighted.
Click "Edit" , choose "Find"
Type "RunOnce" (without quotes -- run them together)
Check the box "Match whole string only"
Click "Find Next"
The folder above "RunOnce" is called "Run" -- that is the folder you want to
look in.
[If you search on "run" you will be all day getting where you need to go]

Look for a key string with "dust" in it. When you find it, delete it and
close Regedit.
