    Hi sanjeevb,

    Thanks for the post- there are experts here on the forum who can help.  However, can you supply a few more details?

    • What leads you to the conclusion that athe computer is infected- what are the symptoms?  How many computers are involved?
    • What Symantec product is installed on the computer, and what components of it are in use? (AV alone, AV + Firewall, AV + IPS + Insight?)
    • Is anything being detected at the moment?  You wrote "not clean it properly" - what exactly are you seeing?

    This is the best document to start with:

    Best Practices for Troubleshooting Viruses on a Network
    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH122466

    Please do update this thread wuith your details and progress!

    Many thanks in advance,

    Mick
