    How to remove the recyler virus from windows 7

    How do i remove $recycle bin folder from my computer? I also would like to know how i can get rid of this system volume information folder that might have the virus.

    I can not view what is in the system volume information folder. And when i try to close these processes(crss. exe ,Winlogon.exe) with the task manager. It says " The operation could not be completed. Access is denied.

    I also find Desktop.ini all over the place and my documents were deleted and replaced with a new folder with different files in it.

    I found this folder called "boot" and there are a bunch of different folders inside of it. There is a memtest.exe folder in there. but i cant delete it at all or any of the other folders.

    I have Norton Internet Security 2011. also i have ad-ware free internet security.

    This ia HP laptop notebook that i just bought last saturday and i think just got it from my usb drive which is infected.

    Please help me out with this problem..

    1. Go here and download the free home edition.
    2. Install it.
    3. Follow these 5 steps to set up a boot scan.


    Restart your computer and the scan should run first thing. This will take a while, so be patient. If it finds anything simply tell it to delete the file.

    After the scan is finished your computer should boot normally. If the files are still there they're fine. Avast has a full suite of real time protections tools included in the free version. It's only active for 30 days unless you register (which requires minimal name information), and it's yours for a year. If they did come from an infected flash drive then Avast should stop it from reinfecting your system.


    Regards, and good luck, Death
