I think those who have removed the infected file should re-install windows to refresh all the system files and make sure that the system is back in its stable state.

FAT32 is rubbish and the sooner all all realise that the better, Windows 2000,XP are the only decent Windows series with a decent resource managment, not forgetting Windows 3.1 :rolleyes: Oh the joys of clean running 486 P.C's. :D

Maybe reinstall the latest service pack but I wouldn't go as far as to reinstall Windows??!!

Screw re-installing windows, i'll just go back to my monthly clean restore point ;)

Dont bother with service packs either, cos MS screwed me over with this disk.

And yes, NTFS rules, you can protect all of your 'files' from family ;)

Win95 is the best OS i've ever used.
