I've never had a problem with viruses, but now, unfortunately, my stepson's computer has a very annoying "worm", I think. He downloads all sort of "crap" off the internet, and I knew it would be only a matter of time before he got something on it I didn't know how to get rid of. I've got Avast, and it does a good job, been using it for several years.
Avast keeps popping up with a "Found Virus" alert every few minutes, I tell it to move it to chest, and it says it can't, because it is being used, or something like that.
When I tell it to delete the file, I assume it does, but within 5 or 10 minutes at the most, another virus file is found and alerts go off.
I'm fairly novice at this, but know some about computers, so while I'm not totally a newbie, I've not removed viruses and worms and trojans all that much. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
