Startup

[kpbradley]

I am running Windows Xp Pro and When I start Windows my Norton Finds a File called A.Bat in C:\ but I go to my C drive and nothing is there and I go to tools and view hidden files and nothing is still there. Norton Corp does it everytime windows starts and Norton quarantines everytime and I deleted it a few times but it keeps coming up. What can I do any ideas?

My first best suggestion is go to our Security and the Web forum and tell them of your issues. It may be that you have an infection that is stubbornly embedded. Also, read the stickies.

Second, dump Norton.

And please check this Symantec site for:

"The name of the email attachment varies, and it will have a .bat, .com, .exe, .pif, or .scr file extension."

It may help you find the file.
