Re: Virus in Windows Protected Directory - HELP!

From: "HornBlower" <nospam@xxxxxxxxxx>

| I have two virii in the System Volume Information directory on my o:\ drive.
| My virus software can't delete the two .exe files. Windows is protecting
| this directory. I have even tried disabling the system restore feature in
| the hopes it would let me in to it. I have also booted to the command prompt
| and it still won't let me in.
|
| Does any one know of a way to get in to this directory so that I can erase
| the virii infected files?
|
| This is Windows XP Pro with SP2.
|
| Thanks,
|
