I am trying to network Win 7 and XP computers and have read the ---file and printer sharing on various versions on Windows. It appears simplest to delete my existing security non Windows program and install Windows Security Essentials, to make this task easier. When I delete the existing non Windows security program it will delete the cmd.ftp file located in Windows system 32 folder, since it is infected. Is not having this file going to cause a problem running Windows?Thanks for any help on this issue.1 person needs an answerI do too

1. If you still have a malware file in System 32, your computer is not clean. You should clean it up before doing anything else. http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware 2. If you are unsure whether cmd.ftp is an infected file, send it to Virus Total for identification. Virus Total will submit the file to numerous antivirus companies and send you a report. http://www.virustotal.com/ 3. If the computer is clean, you must uninstall your old antivirus/security program before you install MSE. Work on your networking after you install your current security program and before you install MSE to rule out firewall issues.MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
