| Junior Techie | I looked at my dads computer because he said its running slow and seems to have a mirc script virus thing that i cant get off my self. I found a file in system32 called mirc.cfg that when i delete it remakes itself. Ive tried deleteing the program buti just puts it self back on. If i exit it it reopens itself i cant get it out of msconfig. It installed itself ont he computer in the begining im guessing. Ive also run Spybot Ad-Aware and Panda 2006. here is the config file Quote:
