[OPLINTECH] "flip" virus

[Deb Malecha]

Today one of our public computers was infected with a "flip" virus (actually, I guess it's really a worm).  I should say that we protect all of our workstations with Norton Anti-Virus and this one had all but the very latest (yesterday's) updates on it.  But, around 11:30 this morning, the desktop and everything else turned  upside down - nothing catastrophic, just annoying.  I followed the advice from Symantec, I tried removing the infected files manually.  I tried deleting the files from the registry.   Every time I deleted them, they came back.  I know I'm missing something obvious.  Any help would be appreciated!
