Default O.T. - computer virus?



I downloaded the Kapersky Rescue Disc 10 ISO file ; I do
have Nero but Kaspersky burned the CD itself. However
don't I have to change the bios to boot from the CD?

Also, I recall that not too long ago my Action Center informed
me that there was an Adobe download and so I started it
but decided to cancel it halfway through. Could this be
fragments of it?

I download the link you gave for Adobe/Firefox and ran
another scan to see if it helped. It didn't, it came back with
the same results.

I've read all your comments and the links and now I'm
wondering if my System Restore has also been corrupted like
the other person who had similar problems:

(This morning when I ran a daily anti-virus scan, it reported
multiple protected files in the latest system restore point from
the Flash player installer file. So I tried to restore from Friday,
the previous week, but the restore operation failed. Tried two
days from last month and the month before that; none would
restore. Finally, I shutdown system restore and rebooted the
PC to clear all the restore file data. Then restarted system restore
and ran anti-virus and all is well again.
