Help..... I got my system - Windiws XP Professional - in a mess, but finally
got it back to work - sort of... Unfortunately I also collected some viruses
on the way. Clean-up and stuff is all done, but now I have the following
problems:
1. The virus program idenified the file sswioebe.exe as being infected with
bloodhound and it can neither repair nor delete it. I can't even find the
file sswioebe.exe. What is it? Where do I find it? Can I safely delete it?
2. Maybe as a result of above, I frequently get a message from a "Microsoft
Machine Debugger has encountered a problem...." it then sends a report and
that is it. Any idea?
I am at loss what to do. Please help.

The virus may have infected your System Restore folder (system volume information).
