A good way to try may be to reboot the machine in safe mode (shut down, re-start and press F8 key repeatedly until you get an options menu up) if the machine will let you log in that way, then run your antivirus and see if it clears it. It may help to download STINGER from McAffee (search for it in Google) it is small enough to fit on a floppy dsk so you can do this anywhere. Hope this helps

How do you remove icons from screen but retain content on hard drive please?
Generally, there are shortcuts to various applications or software on the desktop. I guess you can delete the shortcuts and still find the applications on the "start" menu. But, if the applications are directly saved to the desktop, you will first have to move them to the hard drive and ensure you have a copy of it before deleting. Suggestion: Delete some application shortcut from the desktop which is not important for you. Search the "start" menu and see if you can find it. And then, implement this on the other important applications.

Click on the start button, then control panel, and then find an icon that says desktop shortcuts. Well, actually what you do is you figure out what application you want. Then you click on the menu button (the button next to call) and move the icon to the top row. This will knock off one application already there, so choose which you want to boot, it will be the last one, so rearrange till you get your preference. Then when returning to the home, you will see said icon there. I tried it and it works!
