Hi Im TechPro5238

1. You should probably delete it unless you know the file is good so delete it.

2. This is for moving it to a new folder:

HIJACK THIS IN TEMP FOLDER

You are running Hijack This from a temporary directory. It needs to be in a permanent folder. Please go into Windows Explorer, click on C:\ then click on File > New > Folder and call it HJT , or another name of your choice. Then move HijackThis.exe to this new folder.

The program creates backup files that we may need to use later. If the program is in a Temporary folder, files may be deleted by you or automatically if your system is set to empty temp files.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hijackthis is an advanced malware, registry removing file tool. You should only use the tool if you have been trained to do so, so please do not make any changes. You had said that you have a virus problem with your PC would you like me to walk you through the the process of removal with Hijackthis?
