- Try using the search function of the OS. Best is, you use as a search kriterium the phrase "VScan451.msi" , but I guess this package has been on a CD that the people used to install.

- Look into temp directories - those unter win and those specified by the CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT

- Look into the win folder. There must be a folder called "application data" or so. Examine every directory there.

- Look into the list of services. There must be a background scanner or guardian that's why it pops out so often. I assume it could be some sort of service.

- In the explorer options, turn off the thing that it won't display hidden files or system files or both. You'll have one difficulty less, then. ( I think this option should be turned off by everyone, because worms and viruses just love these flags "system" or "hidden" . )

- Try using the search function by using as seearch kriterium *.MSI Then you'll find any MSI installation packages, I hope.

- Try using the search function of REGEDIT or REGEDIT32 by using "VScan451.msi" as search kriterium. Note the path that is displayed (if ever). If there are results, try using these results as seach kriteria, if you don't succeed.

- Use the search function with using the thing "contains text" and then type "Mc Afee" or so in. Be sure it searches *everything*



That's it for now.

When you find a big kettle of crazy, it's best not to stir it.
