Hi Siddapur,

I guess the virus has nested in a system file that cannot be deleted when the system is started, so the virus remains.

Try putting your harddisk as a secondary disk into a clean computer. Boot the clean OS and disinfect your HD from there.

If that is not applicable, then try getting a clean antivirus boot disk and boot your PC from that and disinfect.

Good luck,

Try the Network Associates AVERT Stinger,

- that detects and removes all variants of the Lovegate virus and it's free.
