guys i felt that to remove the redlof - i needed to download a number of Anti Virus kits including AV, AVG, Avast and Solo too
but then sometimes its easier to try to simple ways
i went to folder options and unhid the system files and in the search mode of the win explorer searched for all the .htt and .ini and deleted the files ( desktop.ini & folder.htt).
although not all the files were deleted, those which relented, i deleted them with the "V" explorer
regards
now please tell the best free server based av kit
