Hi,
with WIN ME:
disable system restore and reboot: see www.free-av.de/merestore.htm
then it should be gone..
Before reenabling RESTORE, make sure that you have all the relevant patches from Microsoft/ www.windowsupdate.com (ME-RESTORE has a bug!!)

WIN XP: as above, or make a new RESTORE-point on an otherwise CLEAN system, and then delete the old RESTORE-Points

The virus (whicj one? was not found anywhere else on the system ?? ;)

Once again to all who are getting a virus as

"Win95:Matyas"
or

"PAV.sig"
or

"imscan.dll"


These are not viruses. They are unencrypted Panda Virus scan files. If you have ever installed any Panda antivirus including running an online free scan from Panda website, these files are generated and saved on your PC. Avast detects them as a virus because they are not encrypted. They are false-positive and you can ignore them. Set Avast to ignore/exclude them next time you run the complete scan. If you no longer needs the files (if you installed Avast, you should no longer need them) dlete them.
