My " winlogon.exe ", got infected by a virus which name is
" Wigon I ", now the question is...how do i clean this virus, when i can't delete or rename winlogon.exe?
I've tried to clean it with nod 32 in safe mode, it detects the virus, and when he cleans it, nod 32 tells me that the virus will be cleaned after reboot. But after the reboot, the virus is still intact, and living....( revives )
What should i do? Any tips?

I have found that the best virus scan around is actually the free scan you get from panda active scan. Just do a search on those words and go to their website and follow the instructions.
It has found and removed viruses when NOD, IAV and Norton failed.

Hee's the way to do it. Get AVG free from http://www.free.grisoft.com
Start the computer in safe mode.
Turn off System restore
Scan the computer
Restart and look no virus!
Now turn System restore back on

Turn off system restore - run Nod32 - reboot - run Nod32 again - when clean turn system restore back on.
Make sure your Nod32 is up to date, Nod32 have stopped copies from updating.
