does anyone know if I'm going to be okay with my passwords etc if I deleted
the mail.exe file before I typed in any passwords? apart from my windows
password which I've already changed?

Scan all your hard drives with TDS-3 (www.diamondcs.com.au), Kaspersky AV
(www.kaspersky.com), Spybot (http://security.kolla.de/) and PestPatrol
(www.pestpartol.com). Then look at the startup registry and startup folder
and make sure mail.exe (or any other suspicious programs) are not present,
and delete them if they are.
If everything come up clean, then you should be fine changing your
passwords. Remember to change ALL passwords as the keylogger has probably
recorded them and sent them back to its evil operator.

Antivir has spot all of my virus, 15-20. I have never been infeckted
after a scan with Antivir so far, tuch wood. I have done onlinescans
with F-secure, Norton, and McAffe after scans with Antivir, not a virus
so far after a scan with Antivir.
