No, it won't get rid of it, it just keeps telling me I have to shut off write protect before I can delete it or quarantine it or anything else. Did you try the manual removal ? You mean delete it by hand? I can't find the file where it is (as far as I can remember), and if I did find it, it STILL says I need to shut off write protect. Back to square one. Dale
