    I hope i am posting in right thread
    Hi guys ;
    A virus occured in my laptop last night and i deleted that virus with Avira Free Antivirus software.. The cleaning is okay but after cleaning there left a lot of empty folders inside C drive , and all folders have the same name "Pluto".
    The Pluto folders spreaded everywhere in C drive. Now , here is my question
    Can somebody give me a batch file for finding and deleting those folders in C drive ?
    Thank you

    Hi MrMagic ;
    I used the first script at that page that you gave.
    It took approximately one hour to finish and it found 273 folder named Pluto and it deleted all folders..
    Now there is no problem left on my computer and i want to thank you so much :)
