Today I encountered a virus. I logged on to my computer and then Norton Antivirus gave me a virus alert and said that it has detected a virus on my computer.

Details:
Object Name : C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\fccywxvv.dll
Virus Name : Trojan.Vundo
Action Taken : Unable to repair this file.

When I saw the virus, I was thinking to myself "thankfully I got an antivirus" but when I saw "unable to repair this file", I flared up.

OK never mind, so I decided that I manually delete the file myself. I went into the SYSTEM32 folder and tried to delete the file, but it said access denied.

I Googled my problem and found a useful program, downloaded it and found out fccywxvv.dll was attached to winlogon.exe.

I know that winlogon.exe is a critical system process and will harm your computer if the process is ended. So I was wondering if there is any chance to take off fccywxvv.dll without stopping/deleting/ending winlogon.exe?

Oh yeah, I heard about a certain program called HijackThis.. What is this 'This' huh? Is 'This' referring to my computer? Will it hijack my computer? Oh no.. This is bad.
