If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options I would like to thank you all for your helpful advice.
I did submit the suspect file to the links that you suggested and sure
enough one or two out of the many files in their Databases DID recognise the
exact virus reported in BULLGUARD.
I also reported these findings from BULLGUARD directly to the Vendor who
replied with a rather short and dismissive Mail advising me to get rid of my
Anti Virus Software immediately.
The problem as BULLGUARD reported lurked in the Uninstal.exe component of
the App which I Deleted using 'SAFE MODE' and then Re Boooted.
The Trojan was then identifed to be in the System Files area. I closed the
RESTORE featue in XP, cleared everything out using BE CLEAN, Re Scanned and
at last the Preditor was Deleted
Fortunately, the App still functions ok and if a complete Un Install is
needed at any time the ADD/REMOVE Pro will do the job.
According to my reseach into this nasty lttle Bastard:
"Trojan.Hacktool.Prockill.A" can be quite destructive
Thanks again for your Help,
Sym
