You can't. Because there is no "System Restore" on W2K.

Hi guys ,

Thanks for you r reply,

Oh I see, Can you perhaps give me a hand on this

I need to delete an infected file which is protected by the system,
'C:\WININT\System32\saristar.dll', it is a dialer which has nested itself the
system. I can not Diasable the System Restore (like with Windows XP ) because
I run Windows 2000 Professional version. My antivirus program can't delete it
either.

Does anybody know how I can remove this file???

Thanks in Advance

That's because it isn't a virus. See:
