REAL PROBLEM 10-1: Cleaning Your System of Malware

I, as you know, have a new computer for this class. I have Norton and ran it for this assignment and came up with no infections. I also went to the Malicious Software Removal Tool from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx - please note this takes roughly 45 minutes.

If something had come about I would then check to see if there were any start up errors. If there were I would go into the MSconfig and see if the Dll is launched. I could then go and delete this fine using the CMD and delete the file. Also make sure my recycle bin is emptied. I would then purge restore points and clean the registry.
