Windows script host can not find file (removed virus / trojan)

After Zone Alarm removed a suspected trojan :o: on booting my Windows7 Pro I get an error message about Windows Script Host not being able to find a file. USFT_EXT.EXE.VBS.
This is probably a good thing but.. Something is telling my operating system to look for this file.. how / where can I edit that information?

Thank you for your time

Hi Ralph,

I’d use Autoruns to track down and disable whatever is trying to launch the missing script: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

Thanks.. sounds like a program that I used to have under WindowsXP.. Startup Cop I think it was. I will give this a shot and see what I can find.. in any case it looks like a fine utility to have. Thanks for the link
