Default Error-384 during startup WINXP


Hi folks,


I'm from The Netherlands, and I've got a strange error-popup during startup
in WinXP.
It says:

Error-384
A Valid data link was not found, deleting file.
OK

Does anyone recognise this strange error-popup?
Who can help me with this one..
T.i.a.

I did a quick Google search and found this:

You've got a virus.

Brad and Yep,

Thanks to U guys!
I downloaded Symantec Anti Virus (becaus my Sophos AV didn't recognise this
virus), tracked down the virus and deleted it. There was no reg-file written
in my registry.
Now everything is up and running again.

Steven
