I ran a MalwareBytes quick scan on my Acer Aspire Windows Vista Home Premium and it detected Brontok.worm - C:\Users\Wolfie\Templates\Brengkolang.com. When I tried to remove it said 'delete on reboot'. However when I rebooted it was still there. I have had no noticeable problems with my computer and I have run numerous other anti spyware and anti virus programs including AVG and Spybot and nothing at all has been detected. Could this be a false positive or should I be checking registry entries?

How can I find where it is on my system? I can't see it under C:User\Templates.

• Please do not install any software or use any removal/scanning tool except for those you're requested to run by the Helper that will assist you.
  
• Using these other tools often makes the cleanup task more difficult and time consuming.
  
• If you have already submitted for assistance at one of the other support sites on the Internet then you should not post a new log here, you should stay working with the Helper from that site until the issue is resolved.
  
• Do not assume you're clean because you don't see something in the logs. Please wait until the person assisting you provides feedback.
  
• There are often many others that require asistance as well, so please be patient. If no one has responded within 48 hours then please go ahead and post a request for review

• NOTE: If for some reason you're unable to run some or any of the tools in the first link, then skip that step and move on to the next one.
