Acriku Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 As long as it is in quarantine you should be fine. But if you want, try out the removal tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamboe Posted July 3, 2003 Author Share Posted July 3, 2003 How can I be sure that if I delete the file that file wont be needed anymore ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 It's an executable file, it won't be needed unless you need whatever it runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
