Hi,

Virus Name: I-Worm/bagel.f
OS: Windows XP Home edition 5.1 (sp1)

My computer was infected with a virus which I detected
and thought I removed within a day or two. However, now
AVG Virus shield reports that the virus I-Worm/bagel.f is
in the System Volume Information folder. When I run the
virus checker itself (different than the virus shield),
it doesn't find the virus. I don't believe that the
virus checker can check that folder. In addition, I
can't get into that folder using file manager either. I
tried turning off the system restore feature but I still
can't access that folder.

Any help would be appreciated.
