I have somehow downloaded a file named "mss.exe" in my
WINDOWS >> TEMP folder. It has just recently appeared. I
can not delete the applcation, as it says it is in use by
Windows. I have no idea what this file is, and need to
know how to delete it from my system. PLEASE HELP!

FYI: mss.exe is message store sanitizer from microsoft, a tool for
removing the Melissa virus from systems, unless there is some new "evil
mss.exe" out there. Check the signature if you plan on running it!
