Am I still infected?

I'm trying to find out if this is a real file. I did get
hit by the worm on 8/12 and Norton deleted it. I did the
recommended fixes but I keep getting a message whenever I
turn on my computer saying that "windows cannot find
nstask32.exe" Its in my files under; C:\windows\prefetch
and has this file #1BB3CA5C.PF Is this leftover from the
worm and can I delete it. Norton also has 2 backup files
and says they may be deleted if they are working ok.
Please help!
