i am having a virus on my windows XP, it is called SCCVIHOST.exe, i am not able to delete it by any means, i even formatted the C partition but with no succes also

so i installed LINUX Mandrake 9 on the same PC having the virus so that i can delete the virus from linux by logging into the other paritions dealing with windows:

i was able to install linux and log into the windows partition, but i am not able to delete the files of this virus, the system tells me, that these are read only file system, how can i solve this? if it helps, i got this error when trying to delete the file from the WINDOWS folder !

another question which may sound stupid, i am not able to log into into folders with (spaces) in their names, for example, if i have a folder named (new folder), i write (cd new folder/) but it does not work! linux cannot find the specified folder !!

PLZ any help will be great, i dont want to format the whole Hard disk, thx a lot

I’m on a Linux compter in one of my college’s computer labs, it’s 64-bit and running Red Hat distribution. From http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ I tried both .tar.gz and .rpm.

When I unzipped the tar file I got a file called libflashplayer.so, and when I tried to open it I got an error that said "couldn’t display [path]/libflashplayer.so".

When I extracted the the .rpm, I got a folder with 2 folders inside, lib and share, and a bunch of files and folders within those. I found another file called libflashplayer.so, and it gave the same error.

Anyone know how to get it to work?

I have searched and tried many ways of getting it done. I’ve searched forums. I still can’t get it to work.
I think I solved it somehow. I still do not get how I did it. Youtube works on mozilla. Maybe it’s because I moved the files into the mozilla folders "components" and another one.

Maybe I installed gnash or something. I don’t know. However, I have the webpages saved, that could have helped me.

My computer is saying that my CD is not the proper CD for Debian installation (this is after booting with a floppy). Obviously this CD that I burnt myself that supposedly has all the installation files needed, the debian boot doesn’t recognize it properly. I was wondering if someone could show me what a debian root cd should look like. (what folders are in it, what files, etc)
Great, I’m getting somewhere. Now another thing is, what image to i use to convert it to a bootable cd?

when i click on a setup file,it s opening as folders……………….and where can i find refresh menu in linux,as windows desktop r.c. refresh
