Virus Problem

[creative_one]

My laptop has a virus if I do the recovery system would that delete the virus?
I do know the exact location of it & when I delete it & go to the recycle bin & delete it from there too. Is it gone for good?
If not how do I get rid of the virus?
Thanks

P.S. I when to bestbuy last nite & bought the photo editing software ( PHP X2) again & i asked an a geek squad agent about reinstalling the office 2007 even thou it said on the box that it can only be installed in 3 computers. He told me that since i have installed it on my laptop before this happened & if i do need to wipe the laptop clean & i can still install again.

Recovery will not delete it.

Does you anti-virus software pick it up? Does it offer to remove it?

download and install the free version. Check for updates and run a full scan...approx 45 minutes. Let it remove all it detects, them reboot when prompted.

I am not affiliated with this product in any way. I've used it to clean malware from over 100 different computers though. It catches and removes items that other products couldn't. The only thing it doesn't do well with is rootkit viruses. I use combofix for them. I do not advise anybody to use combofix unless you are technically savvy. But no matter what you do, back up your data first.
