Virus Lop Found
Last week, my AVG Resident shield detected a virus called Lop and it was in my Temporary Internet Files folder, and I only Firefox to surf the net. also, the infected file is a dll with a string of five letters. I moved it to the virus vault b/c it could not heal it. Then I deleted the file, cleared my Temporary internet folders. Then I restarted the computer and opened Firefox and maybe like five minutes later, AVG Resident shield detected the virus again, in the same folder. I also noticed that it would be sluggish in starting up after putting in my password to log into the my XP account on the computer. I am really confused what to do next. Anything will be very much appreciated!

** There is a list of trained analysts at the top of that board in the Announcements. If someone else replies, it will be your decision whether or not you want to take advice from them.
Please download HJT Installer from Here to your desktop.
If not available use this alternate link: Here
Click the Download button.
When the Trend Micro HJT install box appears, double click on the HJTInstall.exe.
Click on Install.
It will be installed by default here: C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis
A shortcut to the application will also be placed on your Desktop.
The program will open automatically after installation.
You can double-click the icon that was placed on the Desktop to run subsequent HijackThis scans or you can use the icon inside the folder.
The folder HijackThis is where you will find the HJT logs that you save. When you use the application to remove anything, you will also find the backup copies made by HJT inside this folder.
Close all open windows except HijackThis.
Click on " Do a system scan and save logfile" When the log pops up in Notepad copy and paste that file as a NEW MESSAGE on the HijackThis Board.
Before closing HJT, please click on the Analyze This button. "Analyze This" is for Trendmicro use, and does not mean "Analyze My Log". You must post on the forum in order to receive an analysis of your log.
Close the web page that appears and then close the program HJT.
Posting Your Log:
1. Just click the New Message button in the HijackThis forum here: http://www.dellcommunity.com/supportforums/board?board.id=si_hijack
to start your own thread requesting assistance.
2. In the Message Body window that opens, simply Right-Click and select Paste.
3. Please add text to describe your symptoms.
4. Include in the message subject line a description of your problem. For example, "Popups warning of infection".
5. Make certain you post the entire log by clicking the Preview Post link at the bottom of the window and comparing it to the log from your scan before you click Submit Post
** Note: "The box next to Automatically convert carriage returns to HTML line breaks" should be checked if that appears at the bottom of your Message Body when composing your post.
* DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or required.
