Thanks so much. The first step to get rid of the worm is
to end snsc.exe in my processes. What's the best way to
get in to do this. Then I am supposed to delete the
smsc.exe files from windeows\prefech and windows\system32
and windows\driver... What is the best way to get in and
delete this. Thanks again for your help.
