I was running Clam.Xav on my iMac and saw that something named jwgkvsq.vmx popped up. I had it delete the file, but then a folder named S-5-3-42-2819952290-8240758988-879315005-3665 appeared in my Trash and won't go away. Neither Clam.Xav nor Kaspersky have succeeded in deleting it and simply calling up "Get Info" and hitting "unlock," as suggested elsewhere did nothing. I realize it's a Windows virus (probably caught while xferring files from an older pen drive) and won't affect my system, but I don't like it lurking there...
Is there anyone out here willing to give advice on how to delete this annoying folder from my Trash? I'm fairly comfortable using and doing basic troubleshooting on my Mac, but anything more involved might require more broken down instructions... Most of the advice I've seen for removing this thing has come from old posts and usually (obviously) pertains to PCs.
Many thanks!
