Folder.htt and desktop.ini...! Is it a virus...?

Well these are system files....but can be infected by viruses too....just check that the "do Not Show Hidden and System Files" option In ur folder properties is Ticked....just to make sure that these files are indeed hidden and are confirmed system files....Btw if not then this means a possible threath of redlof.A virus infection Or Another way of Confirming the Virus entry is Open the folder.htt in notepad and if u find a tag with kinda lot of junk written in between then its definetly infected.....Just to make sure once more....just run an online system scan *security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym Or
*housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp

And check for possible threats

Also try this *securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/html.redlof.a.html

Yeah, if the files reappear again and again after deleting, yeah it is a virus and very communicable. Use an updated antivirus. You'll get many good ones for free.

Those files are not viruses,but are system files.They store the settings of how your files are displayed(as thumbnails/icons/details,according to date/name...etc),so there's no need to worry.

.htt is not a virus but check out if the file size is 73 kb rather than being around 23 kb .... if so its a virus . use panda to remove redloaf.a its effective and dosent remove other html files which are usually infected by this

This virus is known as the redlof virus

Yes , u have been infected by a variant of the redlof virus. more about the virus here

if i remember well,digit did give a method of removing it manually in one of its previous editions(maybe a year ago ).it involved editing specific registry keys .

But dont go searching for that mag yet,
u can remove it using a tool given by panda software. find it at
