I just discovered Norton AV had quarantined 2 files from system32:

PDSched.exe and winole.exe

Ive been down this road before, they are infected even with very high
security settings, but even though I have the original CD for Win2000 that I
purchased, and have the SP4 CD that I bought, these files cannot be found on
any CD and I cant get them from Windows Update or on the net. There are
great descriptions of what they are, but is there a way to find and replace
the right versions from the CDs??

Thanks
