You can blame Norton Anti-Virus for that.

Lol this is quite simple to fix because I'm 99% sure of the location of such "trojan horse."

Open C:/documents and settings find your username then open that folder. Next, on the top look for "tools" then "folder options" then "view" tab. Finally locate "SHow hidden files and folders" - make sure it's checked. Now, go back to the folder: find "Local Settings" --> Temp --> Edit tab --> select all --> delete --> yes.

Re-install possibly after doing that as there may be some weird issues.

I just did that and when u click select all then delete... theres nothing in that folder.

I went to documents and settings --> default user --> Local settings --> Temp. Is that the right spot? If so there was nothing in that "Temp" folder.

Someone please help me

Delete the Temp folder

[ak47killer]

nope didnt work

No, not default user, go to your username in the docs and settings folder (eg ak47killer) because default user usually doesn't store user specific data.

I think steam must be giving viruses now (more clearly than ever) because I am getting the same problem as ak47killer and I keep a sharp eye on what goes into/out of my computer.

alright i think steam is to. My brother just had the SAME problem. steam is giving virus's.

ok i went into docs and setting and there is 4 folders. All users, Application data, Owner, and default user.

If u mean my account for steam let me know because thats different thats in program files/ steam/ steam apps.


So i don't know what to do.

You would open "Owner" and delete what's in the Temp folder there. Apparently symantec (norton) is aware of this issue and is issuing a patch soon.
