I recently received a download trojan upon opening an E-mail. My Norton virus program identified the corrupted file as IEaccess2.dll - but could not fix it - so the file was deleted. Now...cannot use my Windows Media Player. I simply get a message "cannot connect to server." Is no longer having this file the problem?

I'm using Windows 98 SE.
