My one computer is hectic infected....
So I run my anti-virus and it took me 22min going through the number 0 (scans alpahbetically so afterwards its 1, 2, 3, a, b, c etc) in my Temp file -

C:/Documents and Settings/(name)/Local Settings/Temp

I thought hey, that folder is filled with viruses, might as well delete the whole thing and create another "Temp" folder....

It was deleting half-way through and I cancelled - But the folder is still gone

So did I do the wrong thing?
Is my PC doomed to become slow eventually from the building up of Temp files I can't find?

Always delete "in" temp folder, but don't delete temp folder, log off and back on and see if it makes a difference ;)
 
Also, type %temp% in "run" to get there directly after you restarted.
You shouldn't have been able to delete it in the first place lol. Time for a format & relaod
 
format ftw. always fixes 99% of your problems :)
