    Pokey, why didn't you have the Ewido scan fix those items?

    These for sure should have been fixed

    C:\Program Files\VSAdd-in\VSAdd-in.dll -> Adware.Agent : Ignored.
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\opnolij.dll -> Adware.Virtumonde : Ignored.
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\__delete_on_reboot__w_i_n_w_l_ y_3_2_._d_l_l_ -> Trojan.Agent.vg : Ignored.
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\cool.exe -> Trojan.Dialer.qs : Ignored.

    I am "on the fence" about these as they do point to a real program however there have been some flaws with it which could allow a hijacker onto the computer if you are running an unfixed version.

    C:\Program Files\RealVNC\VNC4\vncconfig.exe -> Not-A-Virus.RemoteAdmin.Win32.WinVNC.4 : Ignored.
    C:\Program Files\RealVNC\VNC4\vncviewer.exe -> Not-A-Virus.RemoteAdmin.Win32.WinVNC.4 : Ignored.
    C:\Program Files\RealVNC\VNC4\wm_hooks.dll -> Not-A-Virus.RemoteAdmin.Win32.WinVNC.4 : Ignored.

    Here is some info about this problem from eTrust Spyware Encyclopedia;
    VNC is a non-malicious Remote Access tool, that can be uninstalled using Add/Remove Programs. It is a useful application with many valid purposes, however trojans exist which utilize VNC's code base. Such malware may covertly install VNC and automatically configure a VNC server password, that can be used by an attacker as a backdoor into the system.
