Did you reboot, and then try to delete the folder again?

|
| I discovered the program called Amust on this board installed it
| and found
| it useful.
|
|
| However after scanning for rootkits I had a hit with this program
| so I
| deleted the program,
|
| washed my system and did another rookkit scan and it still came
| up positive.
| I searched
|
| the registry and tried to delete all Amust registry keys (of
| which I found 3
| remaining after
|
| deleting the program) I could not delete one of them using delete
| in
| regedit. Washed
|
| again and ran another scan for rootkit again a positive hit for
| Amust.
|
|
| I can neither confirm nor deny that this rookkit hit is malicious
| in anyway
| however I though
|
| I would warn the group and they could make their own deduction
| whether they
| wanted to
|
| install the program or not.
|
|
| In my opinion any "program" that tries to completely hide from
| you so you
| cannot tell it is
|
| on your machine should be considered a threat.
