I recently installed Norton Internet Security. Did a full system scan. Was able to delete all but five files. All five are located in C:\RECYCLER (that's what Norton tells me). The following is what I get from Norton. The file C:\RECYCLER\S-1-5-21-2508614513-4166783643-2927389754-1003\Dc8.exe is a Adware threat.
