riched20.dll

[Raf]

I found 38 files called RICHED20.DLL in various folders on
my computer. Each one of them is about 7MB! Does anybody
have any idea what is going on here?

Raf:

This is a sign that you have been infected by the Nimda virus. Here's the
writeup form the Symantec site:

The size of the "official" riched20.dll ranged from about 385 kb on Win95 to
520kb in Visual Studio.Net 2003 (the latest version of that dll.)

You need to follow their instructions on removal and then invest in
anti-virus software.
