I have SystemWorks 2003, and continue to get the automatic detection notice on the Downloader B.O. dr virus when I open Outlook XP. The virus was delivered to me in an email from sender: Mailer-Daemon@optonline.net, Subject: Failed Delivery. The item name changes each time: CC92BO.TMP, CC9174.TMP, etc. I deleted this email completely from my system sometime ago, but continue to get the detection notice. Once I select Finish, I can continue to receive email. I have run a system scan twice on my HD. No infections are detected. What steps can I take to completely eradicate this virus (short of reformating my HD and reinstalling all of my programs)?
 
Delete your temporary internet files, cookies, and your history, the virus has executable link probably thru a temp file. Your temporary internet file are mostly set update automatically rather than next time visit page. NAV quarentine virus , you delete the virus only, leaving file to renew. Good luck
