Finally able delete profilew.exe and rdpua.exe files??

This is an update of my previous post. Yet I didn’t get too much information on these two files but seems finally got rid of the files with help my Avast antivirus software. Now these files are neither running at time of booting of computer, nor I can see them in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Temp\.

Here is what I did :

Start > Programs > Avast! Antivirus >Avast! Antivirus

While starting the “Avast! Antivirus” runs “Tests of Memory and starts up” which was able to caught the virus and asked me to run “Schedule Boot-time scan”. The infected file was windowslive.exe or something similar. I can’t recall the exact file name. It was located in this folder
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings

At time of “Boot-time scan” it again find a different infected file and give me options to choose like repair, move, move to chest, delete etc. Repair option didn’t worked, then I selected move option.

That’s all. : )

Profilew.exe and rdpua.exe virus or what??

Everything was going very smooth until I got the another virus. I didn’t find two much information regarding this on google or anywhere.

Yesterday, Avast gave me warning twice regarding this virus at time of booting my PC yesterday. I followed the steps to remove it but it’s not deleting completely. When ever I starts my computer I see two MS Dos screens appears and disappears. They are creating these two files each time restart computer:

C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Temp\profilew.exe
and
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Temp\rdpua.exe virus

Now Avast don’t give any warning.. (Even if i run Complete scan).. But these two files are coming back even after deleting..

If anyone can help me to remove this then please let me know..
