I got a virus (trojan.byteverify) it has been removed but some of my icons will not work from the desktop, they will work from the programs themselves but even when I have deleted the old ones and replaced with new ones thay still won't work it states either the traget does not exist of I don't have permissions. Any thoghts on what could be causing this issue what needs to be done to repair?

Jump to PostThe virus may have affected your registry...you may need to reset/clean your windows registry files.
Jump to PostIn addition to viruses, you should check your PC (just as precaution) for Trojan's, spyware, malware,adware, worms ect...With regards to cleaning the registry, several softwares can be found @ www.cnet.com/www.download.net....My personal recommendation for your registry are Reg-Soft and X Soft-Spy to better protect your computer.
Jump to PostYou also need to be careful of some hHoax emails that can allow somemalwares to piggy-back onto your system and also keyloggers. I reccm getting a software which prevents against key-loggers.
