I can't clean or quarantine it, the only option is to delete it.

Before I do that though I want to ask the people here who are a little more computer savvy than me, just to be sure.

Note down the filename and path. Click delete, then find the filemanuallyand make sure it's gone. If it isn't, delete it yourself. If it tells you it is in use therefore cannot delete it, use Delete Doctor (or DOS if you are clever, but DeleteDr is easy smile.gif ) to schedule the file for deletion on reboot. Reboot, and check if its there.If its gone,cheer. If not, come back and I'll think of how else you can blast it off your Hard Drive.

Edit: Is the file the actual Iexplore.exe,or is it just in the same folder?
You should switch to firefox anyway,once you start using it you will wonder why you thought MSIE was good..
