Question by manuel m: How do I delete virus infected files found on my computer by the Yahoo antivirus protection system? I have the anti-virus protection service provided by Yahoo. It found 3 files infected by the virus when I ran it to scan my computer. However, it does not give me the option to kill the virus or delete the files. The files/viruses are still in my computer.
