Download and run hijackthis.

Run it and save a log file then paste the log on here.

Someone (probably me) will then check out what is on the PC that is nasty(if anything).

I've searched and haven't found anything even remotely close to that name as a recent virus threat. Make sure you have the correct name before sending us on a wild goose chase.

Ok, so how do you know he has this Zumba or Zumbo virus?
Did some anti-virus software alert him to this? If so, I'd say it's likely that AV vendor has some info on their website in regards to that particular virus.
I also was unable to pull up any info on either of the two names you mentioned.

Wait a minute.... You're not talking about Zuma are you?
Hardly a virus, but can be quite an addictive game. :)
