Someone sent a mail through the forum last week infected with "i-worm badtrans" I run kapersky and mcaffee virusscan. Mcafee didnt even find the virus, kapersky did but couldn't clean it. Like an idiot I deleted the mail but now my deleted folder is locked I cant delete anything and cant empty the deleted items folder in outlook express, or through windows explorer. As the machine is windows 2000 professional a dos boot disk is out of the question anyone got any ideas ????
 
I would prefer a way that didn't involve rebooting if possible as I run a web and FTP server on the machine, but if I must then I must.
 
I can be mailed directly to avoid cluttering the forum, although as the infection was through the forum it is sort of related.
 
 
Any help appreciated
