hello guys!
I recently signed up because I have a couple of questions. I run spyware doctor and kaspersky internet security together. the message "Intrusion.Win.MSSQL.worm.Helkern" comes up on kaspersky almost everyday. does anyone know anything about this? am I in trouble?

also, when I running spyware doctor, when it displays cookies and what not, i'll click quarantine . . . . what I want to know is, whats the difference if I delete the quarantine files or if I keep them? not restoring them, just keeping them in the quarantined folder. I am a bit of a noob and to me its a little unsettling to have them sitting in a folder as opposed to deleting them off the computer. could someone elaborate on this for me? thanks guys

Hi Dan,

When Spyware Doctor quarantines your infections the files are scrambled and become no longer dangerous to your PC. The reason for this is if Spyware Doctor accidental detects a legitimate program as a spyware threat, you can restore it from quarantine. Please be assured that these quarantined files can cause no harm to your computer and take up very little space. If however, in the event that you delete the quarantine files and this causes some erratic behaviour, you are able to use the restore feature.
