Ok, so I was having problems with my computer...I downloaded AVG Free and scanned. It found 4 infected files, but they seem to be 1 file?? (Java/Byte/Verify) But it can't heal them because they are archived??
Could anyone please tell me how to remove these??!!?? Thanks again!

Java Byte Verify often hides in your Java Cache. Clear it. Control Panel > Java > General > Temporary Internet Files > Delete Files > OK > OK.

Can you set AVG to scan the next time you start Windows? Sometimes it can delete files before a program starts to use them. Also, try scanning with Adaware and SpyBot. This is typically a trojan. You can also try the scanners at www.trendmicros.com

Be aware that AVG is telling you that if you delete these files you may cripple another program or function. It is best to quarantine them until you see if you have done more harm than good. Put the buggers in jail!!
