Default Partly Existing Adware?

Norton detected 3 adwares. Although it cant get rid of it, I went to the location
manually and they wasn't there.

But if I typed the whole address in with the program name
(C:\Program Files\Common Files\Yazzle1281OinAdmin.exe) it does nothing rather than
saying incorrect path.

If I were to put C:\Program Files\Common Files\blahbalh.exe ,only
then would the thing popup saying incorrect path.

I ran the scan 3 times already, it still says it's there.

I've got and up-to-date version norton by the way.

Anyone know why this happens?

I couldn't save the log because the button to save the log was greyed out.

I deleted the stuff manually with AVG's list help anyway

My sympton is explorer.exe gets terminated every once in a while

It still continues

Hello, I have a very good connection to Symantec and they'd recommend you to run a liveupdate to make sure you have the latest updates. -> boot the PC to safe mode -> start -> run -> type: "navw32 /l". This will start full systemscan in safemode and will remove the virus. If the virus still is there they 'd recommend you to contact the costumer support,their VSS team.
Good luck .... Cheers ...
