Windows\system32\kdb.dll file

[tommy]

Working on a Dell laptop and have a virus -- Backdoor-
CFB -- located in the file noted above. Mcafee cannot
clean the file and recommends deletion and a reboot "with
a rescue disk"?? I am worried about deleting this file
and I don't know what they are talking in relation to
the "rescue disk" -- Is that an OK action to take?

Thanks!!

Did you run Stinger?

I am not familiar with McAfee, but somewhere in the program >maybe options,
services, there should be an item to create a resue disk -

Yes we did run "stinger". What is interesting is that
Mcafee Virus Scan finds the "Backdoor-CFB" virus
but "stinger" does not?? I am just wondering if I will do
any harm to anything if I just delete the file that is
contaminated which is "Windows\System32|KDB.DLL"

Thanks!!

If it were me, I would not be one bit worried about deleting that file. I
am sure it is assocated with the Virus. I would boot in safe mode, delete
the file and reboot. I would also check the registry. However, I am not
an expert. You may want to post this question to the virus newsgroup:
