Last night a friend of mine told me he found out he had the KakWorm virus and that I had better check my system out since he sends me e-mails all the time. Well I loaded my Norton Anti-Virus and updated it. I ran a complete scan and it found a couple of infected files. Norton quarantined these files, but I was wondering if this is good enough? Is there anything else I should do to rid my system of this virus? I pasted the log file from Norton below so you can see exactly what it did. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.
