1)    Download the following four items...

        McAfee Stinger
        http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

        Trend Sysclean Package
        http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp

        Latest Trend Pattern File.
        http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

        Adaware SE (free personal version v1.05)
        http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\New Folder")
or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")

Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory.
Download the Trend Pattern File by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example;  lpt269.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
SYSCLEAN.COM .

2)     Update Adaware with the latest definitions.
3)     Disable System Restore
       http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
4)     Reboot your PC into Safe Mode [F8 key during boot]
5)     Using Trend Sysclean, Stinger and Adaware, perform a Full Scan of your
       platform and clean/delete any infectors/parasites found.
       (a few cycles may be needed)
6)     Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform using the three
       utilities;  Trend Sysclean, Stinger and Adaware
7)     Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any System Restore preferences,
       (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB),
8)     Reboot your PC.
9)     Create a new Restore point
