Windows XP Memory dmp

[lwi]

Hi There,
My memory.dmp file in directory windows was infected by the virus dialer-748.
As I don't have any antivirus yet, can I just delete that file?
Can I recreate the dmp file after deleted.
And caused the virus could get into my computer as I have firewall.
Thank you for any help!

Download a free anti-virus prgram a.s.a.p!
Try AVG or Anti-Vir both are free and very good.
Once installed do a virus scan it may help to sort out your problem.
