I believe the virus came when a britney spears jenifer lopaz appeared suddenly on the computer and I can't delete it every time I try to do something with it it locks up my pc tried to rename (couldn't ) tried to delete it (couldn't)
searched the registry and couldn't find it any ideas??

thanks for the replies I checked out all the suggestions according to all the anti virus people all I have to do is disable the the restore and empty all temp folders and reboot but all that has been done and the noclose is still there I think the file I can't delete is the culprit any ideas short of reformatting the hd on how to get rid of that file?

Boot into safe mode and delete the file.
