So, let me get this straight
The CD was a copy of another system where the virus had been sent, and saved on the CD. With the installation of the CD came the virus. It passed it onto my system. And, believe me, it is not something that is easy to find when it happens. After I had tried, two local shops had tried, information sought from two manufacturers, and seven different online forums, I finally found one man here that knew of that particular virus, and found it. Unfortunately, the only 'cure' for the problem was a LLF. He, and no one else I had talked with had any other ideas, including antivirus companies.
