when i boot up i get a cant find nail.exe and when i try to close ygames it wont and i have to ctrl alt del?

I get a can’t find nail.exe prompt when I boot up. I dont know if it has anything to do with yahoo games not closing but they both started at the same time. When I try to close yahoo games the screen disappears but it stays in the bar at the bottom of the page. If I dont do ctrl-alt-del and close it it will freeze up my computer. I have run anti-spyware and anti-virus programs on my pc and it hasnt helped.

Nail.exe is a compotent of Direct Revenue’s spyware program ‘Aurora’ and is a very nasty program. This site has very detailed instructions on how to take care of it:
