I received notices from Norton Antivirus 2002 that
C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\DOCUMENTS\EXPLORE.EXE
is infected by the w32.Spybot.worm virus, that it was
unable to repair the file, and that access to the file
was denied. The Norton website provides a procedure for
removing the virus, but it involves deleting the infected
file. I have been unable to view the file or
the "Documents" folder in Windows explorer, so I am
stymied in removing the virus. Moreover, after receiving
the warning notices I ran a comprehensive scan of all
files which found no infected files. I have set folder
options to display system files and hidden files and
directories. Is there some way to display the
explorer.exe file? Any other suggestions for dealing
with the problem?
