Re: Live OneCare Scan reports Worm:Win32/Swen.A@mm

You may have old .ost files that are not actively used, but still exist on the
PC.
Open OneCare, click on change settings, then the logging tab. Click to create a
support log. A report will open in your browser. Scroll to the virus and spyware
section to see the path to the infected file(s).
..nst files are new to me, but a search revealed that there are from something
called Noise Tracker Module, an older audio file -
