I have Windows XP and I believe it was foudn in the folder, C:\System Volume Information, its a hidden folder, so i gather thats bad?

Hi,
pretty harmless, if it's not found anywhere else..

just disable RESTORE, reboot, and reenable it..:

In windows ME when you disable system restore are the files deleted like in XP?

[whocares]

yes,
the entries are deleted after reboot

after cleaning the pc, make a windowsupdate (early versions of SysRestore in ME contained a bug) and reenable SysRestore..
