REGISTRY 3. RAN MSCONFIG It is Windows 2000 Pro. I cannot even find the mIRC exe file to delete it and I cannot uninstall it. I guess is is not a Windows application. HELP!!! TIA, Frank

Note that in some cases you will need to do some manual editing beyond what a virus remover will do. Its important that you remove ALL traces of the trojan. ParaBrat @#mIRCAide DALnet
