Computer problem

[V8 Killer]

Pretty much every day when I start me computer,my antivirus screen pops up saying it detected a file known as "Downloader.Trojan" and deleted it.Every freakin day! I've tried searching manually and automatically for the file name it leaves once it gets deleted.Its coming from a "Temporary internet files" Internet explorer 5" file.I have no such file! I use I.E 6.I tried scanning the entire system and deleting internet files histories.Still nothing,nothing found.Norton antivirus says it should be in my registry under "windows" Currentversion" Once again there is no such file there.WTF can I do?

if you have windows XP try shutting off system restore

The easiest solution would be to format your hard drive, it would probably take less time to do that than to track down your problem.

yes, but I would take it to a tech shop where they have the hardware to do it and save your data too. Unless you have an extra computer and hard drive and a copy of Norton Ghost, and the know-how to do it.

shut off system restore like siad above

this delets all restore points and should get rid of it....

the reboot and see if it still happens
