So I was trying to set-up Skype (yeah, I caved in) when this appeared.

C:\Documents and Settings\PC\My Documents\SkypeSetupFull.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\PC\My Documents\SkypeSetupFull.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

I googled it and apparently it's a trojan of some kind.

Any help?

Did you download it and not close Firefox/IE?

Have no recollection of downloading it...

But I have kept the computer on over 3 days downloading Warhammer online.

Eee, I'm avoiding any main MMO's for a bit myself.

If you're having problems with Skype, I am too. Mostly I got no friends myself to add or anything.

It sounds like it'd be best to restart the computer anyways. PRobably just needs a fresh breath of electricity.

You probably just need more RAM. Go onto the Limewire and starting downloading a bunch of .exe files. That'll clear it all up quickly.

Delete system32. That should do the trick.
