    Hi delta08. :)

    Welcome to Wilders.

    U could try deleting it in safe mode.

    Curiously, what infection is being detected?

    Just to be sure I'm understanding....you did not find that file in the below location ?

    C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\msoffice.hta

    Also....was your Homepage changed to searchdot.net ?

    You may have to use a Command prompt....since the Fonts folder is a special folder for Windows and it's setup to hide all files in it that are not font files.

    It might be time to use Hijackthis. Unfortunately, Wilders no longer provides hijack cleaning sevices. For more info and help go here,

    I'm sorry Delta....but it appears you missed Snowbounds post or mis-read it concerning Hijack this.

    In System Configuration Utilities uncheck the MS-Office.hta Startup
