Install Noob Killer and do a 8-X kill. It will clear out the malware.

And if you have already deleted it, then download Virus Effect Remover and remove the effects of virus.

Try this:-
1> Right click on that F drive and click on Properties.
2> Click on the Security tab.
3> Click Advanced.
4> Select the concerned account click on edit. Select “This folder, subfolders, and files” click ok.
5> Place a check next to the text “Replace all existing inheritable permissions on all descendants with inheritable permissions from this object."

This should reset the permissions. See if this works...

Also, run a chkdsk scan.

There is a utility in windows called the 'system File Checker' that checks if the necessary system files are intact in the system.... for using it, Insert ur windows XP SP3/SP2 cd.... then Start>Run>type in cmd .... when the command prompt opens up type in sfc/scannow and press enter.

this will open the system file checker ...it will compare the system files in ur comp with that on the CD... if any mistakes are found, the concerned system file is replaced with that on the cd...

Also beware that any custom themes applied by altering system files may be disabled since this returns ur windows installation to the default form.... njoy..!
