Can't Access C Drive

Plarin · 05-15-2009, 09:59 PM

I foolishly opened a virus and now I have pop-ups and can't access the C Drive.

I get this message when I try to access the C drive:

Windows cannot find 'RECYCLER/S-3-5-27-100032528-100020612-100013709-3551.com'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To serach for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

I ran AVG (free version) and this is all that turned up.

"C:\WINDOWS\Temp\gaopdx4476343";"Trojan horse FakeAlert.KH";"Moved to Virus Vault"

"C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\tempo-4476453.tmp";"Trojan horse FakeAlert.KH";"Moved to Virus Vault"

"C:\WINDOWS\Temp\tempo-4476453.tmp (3696)";"Trojan horse FakeAlert.KH";"Reboot is required to finish the action"

Also, in my Windows temporary folder are 4 files called PartialTrustWpfCallingWcf_TemporaryKey. Don't know if that's important.

Thanks for any help.

And here's an AVZ log:
