Hi please can you help. I stupidly clicked on a file in what I thought was an email from amazon. Mcafee stopped it but I keep getting you have a trojan restart your computer. I have dont this 3 times and have run a full scan, but it cant remove the trojan. It says rijiep.exe has been stopped but it cant be deleted. Is there any way to remove it please? Thanks

Thanks to all competitions posters and answer finders

Run a full scan with Malwarebytes.
And then remove McCrappy and install a decent free AV (Avast, Avira or MSE). Or Kaspersky is free with Barclays online banking.No free lunch, and no free laptop0 -
try adwcleaner from bleepingcomputers.com.....0

Feel a bit bad now, as I got one of those emails this morning. Never thought to put out a warning. Anyway, Amazon or their genuine sellers, do not put zip files in their emails, so treat as scam/spam and delete.0
