Excellent this worked.
Followed your advice to the letter and the Trend sysclean package found the
virus and reported the following;
First Scan
C:\windows\gcasServ.exe found virus [Troj_Dloader.bn]
1st action move failed
2nd action delete deleted
Second Scan
Again found the infected file but this time cured the file.
No problems since.
Thank-you for your help.
Regards
