| what if I just delete it? How much of a problem would that be?

It may not be enough. If it is a Trojan, what modifications have been made to the OS ?

Does it pair with other Trojans ?

Few infected platforms have just one Trojan. They often have multiple.

Use of the software I suggested will remove the Trojan, correct modifications that a Trojan
has made and the worst case scenario is that nothing else is found. The best thing that
could happen is not only is this trojan found and identified but it finds and clears others
are corrects modifications to the OS>

Deleting just the executable is *rarely* enough.

I deleted it in safe mode and now there are errors all over my computer.

See ?

That's why you just DON'T delete files.

Sometimes infectors use names of legitimate files. If you just delete a file you don't know
the consequences.

If you suspect a file, submit the suspect file to Virus Total --
http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html
The submission will then be tested against 17 different AV vendor's scanners.

Another way to submit is to send the suspect file to the following email address
scan<at>virustotal.com
{ replace <at> with @ } with only the word SCAN as the subject.

Then you will know if it is a concern or a False Positive.

If it is still it the Trash Bin (Recycle Bin) Restore the file and submit the file and then
scan the system using directions I provided.

Isn't it great when people ask for advice, you give excellent advice and
explain what may happen if the advice is not taken, and they take no
notice. Why they bother asking in the first place ?

I asked what it was and how I could get rib of it. Then I deleted it before
anyone posted about it. You all took too long to answer.

Yeah, I guess 19 mins is a long time - and they (whoever they are)
reckon women are more patient than men!!

At least you gave some information - better than the "I've got a
problem with my computer, how do I fix it" type post where the group's
expected to get their crystal balls out to discover the nature of the
"problem". The guys have to be careful, y'know. Crystal balls are
fragile!!
