Ars Technica: Antivirus says 'hiberfil.sys' and 'pagefile.sys' infected. Should i remove them? Ran a antivirus program and it said that hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys are infected by a trojan.
Understanding the Context
The program couldn't remove them since i guess they are read only. Should i remove them manually ...
