    Thunderbird only marks messages deleted, doesn't delete them physically until the folder gets compacted. Do the following:


    Deactivate the on-access scanning


    Right-click on the Inbox folder and click Compact


    Re-active the on access scanning


    Best regards.

    Many thanks for that. I have had 1,500 files infected and that was the last 3. Computer now clean. I think I got infected through"Limewire" but can't be sure.


    Thanks again.
