By the way: Neither "firewall" nor anti virus can help, if the user
opens executables from dubious sources.

To get rid of it:

- Boot Win ME in safe mode.
- Execute this tool:
http://shareware.pandasoftware.com/pq/gen/bugbear/pqremove.com
- Disable system recovery (!)
- Finally reboot Win ME.

And last but not least: think about using a better av scanner.

That's what you think happened. Parite (Pinfi) does not propagate through
e-mail! Besides, e-mail wouldn't explain why you get reinfected.
broadband.

Not related.
bull dog firewall.

Transparent to malware that propagates through shares.
windows me.

Plain bad choice!
Norton anti virus

Can't stop malware that propagates through shares.

I can see now why you get reinfected time and again. Read
http://invircible.com/item/72 for how to clean your PC. Use F-Prot for DOS as
explained on that page - NAV is plain useless for the purpose.
