I have received a message from Trend Micro that my computer has been infected by the virus Mal Hifrm. The infected file is C:\...\[1].htm. The virus could not be quarantined or cleaned. I cannot locate this file to delete it or add to quarantined files. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi, can you post your Virus log on this post so we'll know the virus location? Here's how to get the virus log:

Any webpage you view gets saved (will have the extension .htm) in your Temporary Internet Files Folder which is a system protected/hidden folder that's why the infected file cannot be quarantined/deleted.

Just clear your Temporay Internet Files Folder from Internet Explorer's Option.
