deleted files keep on coming back
      #371096 - Tue Nov 06 2007 05:25 PM

I often download files using wyzo, and usually delete them as soon as I no longer need them. They are all stored in a download folder. Two of such files, a video and a music file, disappear when I delete them, but regularly reappear each time I reopen the download folder. Any idea why? I wish I could get rid of them somehow. I've also tried to delete them using drive cleaner 2006, but they wouldn't go away.
Thanks for your help.

G'day whitebear.

Welcome to Webuser..

wyzo - web-browser with BitTorrent support built in.

What size are the two files?.

If you've tried using Drive Cleaner 2006, I suggest you visit the Hijack This part of the forum as I'll put money on you being infected.

One is a 697 MB video, the other is a 27MB audio file.
