Title: Application cannot be executed. The file **** is infected.
Post by: bardd5 on May 09, 2010, 04:41:19 PM

Hi there -

I also have the same issue already posted by several others. Thank you in advance for your help.

Here is the issue --

I got a serious issue with my system. Somehow some trogan/rogue has affected my system. It keeps flashing me virus alert and whenever i try to run any program it says "Application cannot be executed. The file  **** is infected......." (not even a command prompt or notepad can be opened but with multiple try sometime i get the command prompt but it is ridiculous).

Here is the output of the rkill --

This log file is located at C:\rkill.log.
Please post this only if requested to by the person helping you.
Otherwise you can close this log when you wish.
