System32 Error

[Richard Rance]

hi, a few months ago my computer got a virus which
infected the widnows system32 file! sophos wouldn't
delete is at first but then it did after a few days. but
since then every time i start my computer up i get the
following error message: "Windows cannot
find 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\system32.exe'. Make sure you
typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search
for a file, click the Start button, then click Search." I
haven't noticed any change in performance or any problems
since this has happened, but it is extremely annoying
when is pops up every time on start up. also i am worried
because i thought the sytem32 file was a very crucial
important file, and i dont want it to be affecting my
computer! please could somebody email me and tell me how
i can resolve this problem! thanks

System32.exe file is a virus, you don't want it back. It is not a real XP
system file.
Your seeing your computer ask for it because the virus was not cleaned out
properly.
