Well, you can easily clean malware infection from this folder by using the following simple steps:
- Right click on My Computer, then go to Properties
- Now in Windows XP: Go to System Restore tab, enable the option Disable System Restore on all drives and click Apply. This should erase all System Restore Points, including the infected file(s).
- In Windows 7: Go to System Protection > then under protection settings choose hard drive that have malware and click Configure > Turn off system Protection > ok
- After this, again enable the system Restore option and press Apply again, so that you'll re-enable System Restore.
