Hi, I've been patrolling around trying to fix this, i have the same problem.

Here's something i found at a different site, will try to give all credit where credit is due...

" If you have Windows XP you'll have to manually delete the infected files found in the c:\System Volume Information\_Restore folder, they are part of the Win Xp backup (those backup files were created when the system was infected).The System Volume Information folder is a hidden, system folder that the System Restore tool uses to store its information and restore points. There is a System Volume Information folder on every partition on your computer. You might need to gain access to this folder for troubleshooting purposes.. In order to do that please follow the steps:

1. Right click the My Computer icon on the Desktop and click on Properties. 2. Click on the System Restore tab. 3. Put a check mark next to 'Turn off System Restore on All Drives'. 4. Click the 'OK' button.5. You will be prompted to restart the computer. Click Yes.

If you have Windows Me please consult this link in order to see how to delete the files from the restore folder:http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q263455
