SFC is the System File Checker and is NOT a program for dealing with malware. It is a tool
for dealing with OS corruption where a specific EXE or DLL file was accidentdetally replaced
with an older version file. For example, you install WinXP SP2 and you installed a new
printer but did not slipstream the installation files and a SP1 DLL replaced a SP2 DLL file.

The SFC can replace the faulty DLL with a SP2 DLL from a cache.

The tool that I suggested spaecifically seeks out Trojans, Viruses and other forms of
malware and removes them.

I suggest you use my tool and start with the McAfee module.
