Please help! im trying to delete a file...?

im trying to delete a file (c:/windows/system32/khfcbba.dll) because my security thing said that it had a trojen in it. when i try to delete or re name it, it says i cant because its being used by another person/program.





WHAT DO I DO??

Please help! im trying to delete a file...?
stop using limewire
Reply:restart your computer ... should delete then ... if not ... restart again in safe mode .... safe mode runs minimal programs just needed to run operating system
Reply:You could try to delete it in Safe Mode. Should work.
Reply:some files/programs that are infected are impossible to delete without an antivirus program to do it. get mcafee, norton or another antivirus program. the program should attempt to clean it, if it can't then it should quarantine it. once it's quarantined you should be able to safely delete it.





good luck.
Reply:Firstly I would recommend you to use a better anti virus. AVG Free is a good free anti virus, however if you're willing to spend, get Kaspersky, it's currently the best anti viral detection software in the market. Then get Ad-Aware and Spybot Search and Destroy, these 2 anti spyware/malware detectors will detect almost anything that the anti virus can't detect. Once you got these 3 softwares, you're computer will be impenetrable.





Secondly, if it doesn't remove, try going into safe mode. Restart your pc, and keep pressing F8, select safe mode, and go to the folder there and delete.





Another way is by downloading a software called Unlocker, it allows you to end any process and the file is using so you can delete it. Just download, install and right click the file you want to unlock and click unlocker.

Reply:boot in safe mode and delete it, or use a program like GiPo@MoveOnBoot to delete it ... search for MoveOnBoot .
Reply:download kaspersky the trial, it is the best free antivirus
Reply:it cant be activated if its a trojen... if you're anti virus cant get it off you're computer then just ignore it.. if you dont open it it will never take any effect on you're computer : )
Reply:Its a windows file and your running windows so its in use. you need to have your virus progam fix or quarintine it
Reply:Run a virus scan instead. Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html . You can also run a free registry scan using utilities from http://re7.info
