Should add that AVG flags up its location as:
ied_s7m.cab:\ied.exe
Thanks again.

It's not the System Volume Information folder or a Temp folder is it?

In case you missed it...
Should add that AVG flags up its location as:
ied_s7m.cab:\ied.exe
Thanks again.
-
Normally, those 2 files reside in the C: folder
Can you double click My Computer
Open the C:\ drive and let me know if you can find
C:\ied_s7m.cab:
you may also want to look for
C:\ied.exe
If you find them you may want to send them to the recycle bin
You may also want to do an Online virus scan at Housecall's--Set to Autoclean
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ (http://\"http://housecall.trendmicro.com/\")
Is your version of Windows Legit?
If it is you are way behind on Windows updates
For now you should ensure you update to Service Pack 1a
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloa...p1/default.mspx (http://\"http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp1/default.mspx\")
Restart your computer and then visit Windows Updates and get all latest Critical updates
Don't get SP2 at this time and don't install Recommended updates unless wanted
-
Should add, those files are usually added as an Active X control
To enhance your privacy and security
You should set up protection against future attacks
You should install these 2 apps., they add extra security while
silently protecting you, without running in the background
SpywareBlaster by JavaCool---will block bad ActiveX and malevolent cookies
Install---Check for Updates---Enable all protection
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html (http://\"http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html\")
IE-Spyad---IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
Here is a tutorial and download link
TUTORIAL==Link to Tutorial (http://\"http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=53\")
Download link==Download link (http://\"https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm#IESPYAD\")
Scroll down and click on IE-SPYAD.EXE Free! or IE-SPYAD2.EXE Free!
Regular IE-Spyad for the individual user or IE-Spyad 2 for global protection(All users) on your computer
You only need one or the other
With both, Check for updates every couple of weeks
Keep the link to IE-Spyad bookmarked so you can check for updates
SpywareBlaster, after every update just simply enable all protection

Hi there,
Once again, thanks for your help and your time.
I found the two files in the C: folder, moved them to the recycle bin and emptied it. I will now run AVG again to ascertain that they've gone. I'll also run the online check, as suggested.
No, I'm afraid my Windows is not legit. The computer was purchased before Xmas, with it already installed from a blank with a dodgy serial number, which means I have not been able to update patches etc, until I replace it with a legit version.
I will post back and let you know the outcome of the checks.
Many thanks and kindest regards, Charlotte.
-
Well then, at minimum ensure you install SpywareBlaster and IE-Spyad
You should also install Spywareguard
This is real time protections against spyware
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html (http://\"http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html\")
Stay safe
