What do you know about this virus. My daugther got it in an email.
Am I better of reformating the HD?

From the name of the virus alone I'd suggest contacting your ISP and changing your e-mail & dialup passwords.

If you haven't ran it just delete it.

It is one of those two. How did you detect it?

When I came in from work, I found her tinkering with the computer. She told me that somebody had sent her an email with a virus. I checked with Norton and it reports some files infected. The one that I wrote down is msdos98.exe, there are others but I cant check now because I powered down the afected computer.
I tried repairing the files but Norton cant do it.
