hi and welcome , best idea is to move to chest then after a few days when all seems ok delete . if you are worried about it and need reassurance of what it might have done , you can search thru forum or google and find out that way. good luck

Thanks for the tip.

i ran msconfig found the startup batch file, removed that from startup and cleaned up files, all seems ok, going to run a scan anytime soon, too what other nasties are left on my pc.

Cheers

If needed, run the system file checker to put back the original system files.

start > run > cmd > sfc /scannow (keep the XP cd ready)

or

start > run > cmd > sfc /? (for info on the switches)
