Download the Trail version of TrendMicro from same address..

This is the best virus control that I have ever seen... McAfunk is a piece
of crap and that's from experience of using and helping other users get rid
of virus and bots as well..

After you get rid of this... I'd suggest that you purchase same from
Newegg.com which I believe is about as cheap a place to buy it..

Trojan Horses are a pain in the neck.

Download AVG Free 8.0 form here:
'AVG Free - Download antivirus and antispyware software for Windows XP
and Vista' (http://free.avg.com)

Scan your computer and remove it. (Do it as a power user). Pretty
Simple.

Enjoy. :)

AVG 8 is not the best solution. It is quite invasive.

Avast is a better choice for a free anti-virus.

For Trojans, Malwarebytes is presently the best around..

Dump temp internet files before running it (if possible), then run it in
Safe Mode.. reboot and run in standard mode..
