Many thanks for your advice. A couple of hours running the scans you gave
me links for have resulted in success! I worked through procedure 1 and
found that the Trend Sysclean Package was the most effective. It found and
deleted the virus. I now have a virus free PC.
I didn't need to work through procedure 2 but will keep this one in my
archive as well.
Your expertise and time were appreciated.
