Can't find sys. folder to delete virus

[james636]

Guys, I'm infected with the "Win32.Thorin.11932 dropper" It is located in a sys. folder that I can't seem to find: C:\DOCUME~1\JAMESJ~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\TMP880.tmp

I've already changed the settings in the folder option to "show hidden files and folders" and unchecked the "hide protected operating system files" But I still don't see it.

Below I have a pic of the prog that is displaying the infection. If you notice, I ran a scan with EZ Armor and it completed with no infections, so I can't delete the infection using EZ Armor. But the EZ Armor realtime protection does detect the infection; I don't understand.

I also scaned my system with numerous other progs and they too did not detect this infection.



Can you guys help me find this folder so that I may delete this infection.

Here's a quick shortcut to the folder you need to get to. Click Start -> Run then type in %temp% and click OK. For future reference, the Docume~1 folder is Documents and Settings, JamesJ~1 is the folder for whatever your username is, LocalS~1 is hte Local Settings folder. If you open a command prompt you can navigate using those truncated folder names.
