I have found this unknown virus on my PC. It is called "fk59.exe". It is in my WINDOWS directory. I have Win XP Home edition. I have checked virus databases and can't find anything about it. Frankly I just keep trying to delete it but it won't delete.  It gives me a message: "Cannot delete fk59.exe, access is denied. Make sure disk is not full or write protected or file is currently in use." I checked it Properties and it lists it's original file name as "load.exe" and the Product name as "loaderme". So how do I get rid of it. It seems to bog up the computer at times. Thank you.

try under properties to "end task"of that program then try to delete it the reason you get that message is that the program is in use or running in the background hope this helps

You have to go into safe mode to delete it, if you don't know how to get to safe mode, just restart your computer and press and hold the F8 key when your system is booting, you'll know when. It'll ask you if you would like to continue in safe mode, say yes. After that your desktop will have safe mode in all four corners, this means nothing is running. Just find the file fk59.exe and delete it. I had a similar problem with a virus known as the second and i did this and its gone. good luck.
