Answer» Everytime I start Windows 98, Brasil.pif shows as a message error Can some one tell me how to get rid of this and what it is ThanksLook at my REPLY for the other post. The bottem line is, scan for viruses. Then we can rule that out.badluckgil......I suggest you run your Anti VIRUS scanner... If you DONT have one , you should invest in one or be prepared for a lot of infections . The link will explain EXACTLY what it is and how to clean it out .

dl65 If you go to grisoft.com, free-av.com, pandasoftware.com, or avast.com, you can download free antivirus progs that generally work better than Symantec/Norton. If you want to buy one, trendmicro.com, grisoft.com, and kaspersky.com have some of the best. pandasoftware.com and housecall.trendmicro.com have free online scans to cover any leaks in other brand resident scanners too.'Brasil.pif'? Definately illicit. Go to Start > Run and TYPE 'msconfig' (without quotes). Then click on the Start-Up tab and see if you can find this file, then uncheck it.
You should also get a spyware scanner and antivirus app, as was advised
