Here’s the info:
“C:\Users\April\App Data\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temp….
Virus found JS/Psyme
Infected”
It can neither be healed nor deleted. When I go to the specified location, I can’t find a temporary folder.
Does anyone know what I need to do to see hidden files on a Vista?
Or how to get rid of the virus?
It’s not listed in the virus glossary, so is it even worth worrying over?
Thanks.

ALL viruses should be eliminated. I would try running AVG again in Safe Mode. Safe Mode often prevents malware from protecting itself.
To get into Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking:
1.Log out and reboot your machine.
2.When the machine starts the reboot sequence, press the F8 key repeatedly.
3.Select Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking from the resulting menu.
4.The machine will continue booting, but the Windows desktop will look different.
5.When you’re finished doing what you need to do, log out and reboot back into normal mode.
Good luck.

You can try deleting your browser cache. I got that once too and run AVG 8.0 with XP SP3. It’s not necessarily an actual virus, but somewhere along the line, you’ve gone to a website that had it imbedded in it. That can leave you prone to getting a virus in the future. Then run a complete scan and see what comes up. AVG did delete if for me after that.

AVG wants you to buy. Their freeby is a come on. I ended up having to buy.
