My AVG virus scan has identified the following virus: Java/ByteVerify

Any idea how I can remove this?

If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 5.0 update
9,
then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions.
There are vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being exploited.

It is highly suggested that you update to the latest version which is Sun Java
JRE/JSE
Version 5.0 Update 9

Simple check, look under...
C:\Program Files\Java

The only folder under that folder should be the latest version.

Such as...
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_09

http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

FYI:

1) Dump the contents of your IE cache -
Start --> settings --> control panel --> Internet options --> delete
files

2) Dump the contents of the Mozilla FireFox Cache { if you use FireFox }
Tools --> Options --> Privacy --> Cache --> Clear

3) Dump the contents of your Sun Java cache -
Start --> settings --> control panel --> Java applet --> cache --> clear
or
Start --> settings --> control panel --> Java applet --> general -->
settings -->
delete files

4) Re-scan your system using your anti virus software.

Sure you don't mean version 6, Dave. I've checked with both WIn98 and WinXP
and Java.com says both are up to date with v. 1.5.0_06.
