Help!  My PC is infected by this virus that my SCAN 3.5 can't even
detect.  The virus has a little bug that moves across the screen line

bug seems to work in the background, ie while an application is
running.  The bug that moves across the screen looks like this

                 ********=(

will be greatful.

Thankyou in advance.
