I've done a virus scan and its found the following "SDBot Trojan horse". I've
got adware and antispyware, sbybot search and destroy but they won't detect
it. Does anyone know how to remove it.

Hi Yorkie

SDBot is a trojan so doesn`t exactly fall into the Spyware category rather
more the Virus one which is probably why your Antispyware progs aren`t
catching it. As a trojan Pluns recommendation of Ewido is a good one cos its
very good at identifying and dealing with those. However, you mention that
you did a `virsus scan` so I am left wondering what AV prog you are using
that cannot deal with it and whether or not your defs are up to date.

I use AVG anti-virus. The file that is causing the virus warning is "adiras"

I tried the http://virusscan.jotti.org/ which uses multiple virus scanners
and it found nothing. I've searched the file on the internet and many sites
are saying the file is an innocent file that is created by my sagem ADSL USB
modem.
