rootkit.agent infection

Hello:

I just did two scans, with slightly different results.

The first, I had Opera running in the background, and when it got to the following file, my PC crashed:
c:\System Volume Information\{21a0b47f-09fd-11df-9a27-0015055d02ca}{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752}

The second scan, I had nothing running in the background, and was able to stop the scan without crashing when it hung:
c:\System Volume Information\{0a2e605a-0ac3-11df-9638-0015055d02ca}{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752}

Thank you,
Pat

Just two system restore points.

To turn off System Restore, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2. Click the System Restore tab.
3. Click the Turn off System Restore check box (or the Turn off System Restore on all drives check box), and then click OK.
4. Click Yes when you receive the prompt to the turn off System Restore.

Now we need to make a new restore point.
To turn on System Restore, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2. Click the System Restore tab.
3. Click the Turn off System Restore check box (To turn on System Restore), and then click OK.

Ok, done. That took care of the hanging and crashing. Now there's just this one bit which showed up at the end of AntiVir's log:

Starting the file scan:

Is it something of concern?

No, the locked files are Windows files and locked for a reason.

Alright then! My PC is clean and happy! Thank you very much for your assistance. My donation is on its way.

Best wishes,
Pat
