Cannot remove quarantined file

Hi,

I have run the anit-virus scan and I have one file in quarantine. It is a Troj/Rootkit-ES virus and the file is c:\windows\system32\a0b5fd8a66e07f06c6fcc52e7d6bf4e1.sys.

The file is hidden and there is an instruction that manual cleanup is required. However I cannot find this file anywhere. I have allowed system and hidden files to be shown and I cannot find this file in c:\windows\system32.

I would like to remove this file completely. Any ideas on how I find it?

Thanks

Ian

Thanks for the reply.
The file does not exist in c:\windows\system32. This is really the problem!
Even if I allow hidden and system files to be shown it is still not there. There is not even a filename close to this one.
