I have avg anti virus and i have a virus or threat called trojan horse?

i need help i have avg antivirus free edition and i have a trojan horse virus and whenever i scan i find it i move to virus vault then i try to heal it but you cant click the option i deleted it a few times but when i scan the next day i find the same threat again how do i get rid of it my computer is slow and i keep on getting pop ups on internet explorer whenever i visit a website|||Try this go to http://www.trendmicro.com and do their free virus scan, I think they call it "house call". You should be able to scan and delete the Trojan. Also you could download the McAfee 30 trial and install it update it and use it to get the Trojan. But it sounds like AVG is not getting the job done on this virus. I also hear that Avast is a good free anti-virus. Good luck!





The pop ups may be a totally different issue called spy-ware or ad-ware go to http://www.lavasoft.com and download the free version of Ad-Aware 2007 install it update it and run it and remove everything it finds.|||Ouch.


boot into safe mode, and rescan with AVG. delete what it finds. scan again. reboot into safe mode. Scan. reboot into normal mode and try again.





There are too many variables here to really determine the problem. BUT if the above does not work, create another account on your computer, boot into safe mode, and manually delete the old profile. It's kinda like smahing a fly with a sledgehammer, but it usually works.|||I'm no expert on this stuff, but maybe it would help you to turn off 'system restore' before running the anti-virus software. I know that some viruses/trojans and whatnot can hide in there and re-infect your system because most software cannot scan inside that area because it is a system protected space. Well, this is what I've been told anyway. Anyway, get rid of whatever you have been infected with, then you can turn system restore back on if you wish.|||This sounds terribly like the virtumonde trojan.download this freeware
