Computer VIrus Please help

[Minneapolis Mayor]

Some spyware virus got into my computer which has been caused by antivirus 08. The comp is shutting down with instruction delete the last file downloaded. unfortunately, I can't delete the file because it is telling me some programe is running which is not true. Its still telling me that even after I shut down the comp and rebooting it.

how can I delete this file?

any assitance?

Use LINUX

XP/VISTA is garbage.

MM u can try that for free dude, Its works pretty good and will remove that infection. The only other way around this will be a manual removal and thats a long and risky process. Just in case, back up any important files on ur system.

There reason why there are so many problems (virii, malwares, bugs, etc) with Windows computers is, because +99% of the time it's run with an Administrator user account. The correct thing is to run it with Standard user account, as is done with Linux and other OS operating systems.
