-=PCTechTalk=- Re: MORE QUESTIONS ON TROJAN HORSE

Anything in quarantine is not being used by your system so
if your system's working ok with it in there, it'll work
fine if you delete it.  I think SysReg was created by the
trojan, I don't have it on my computer.

Well I have done everything that I was told to do to check
for this "thing".  I am still very confused.
I went to my Norton Program and opened up the reports file
and this is when the Trojan Horse showed up
Date:5/23/03  Time 20:00:06 Virus Scan Started
Date: 5/23/03  Tme 20:54:32  The file
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEMS\SysReg.exe is infected with the Trojan
Horse Virus;  Unable to delete this  file.

Date 5/23/03  Time 21:09:10  The File
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEMS\SysReg.exe is infected with the Trojan
Horse Virus  Unable to repair this file.

Date 5/23/03  Time  21:08:28  The file
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEMS\SysReg.exe was infected with the Trojan
Horse Virus.  The file was quarantined.

So now my question is:  Can I safely delete this file that
is sitting in quarantine or what should I do with it.  Is
the SysReg file an important file and one that is needed.
Talk about being confused but that I am.  When it comes to
the internal workings of the computer, I think I am not that
savvy.
Can someone offer up some explanations and or help.
