there are several tools you could try down loading and running, such as: spybot search and destroy, ad-aware 6, theres a removal tool on the avg homepage (www.grisoft.com) that has a list as long as your arm of viruses that it can remove. most of the above you can get at www.downloads.com

The easiest and best way is to RTFM for each one, and follow those instructions. Any other method may be problematic.

jeruvy: i dont think R'ing'TFM is going to be appropriate for the problem dinnifree has. i havent found the suggestions i posted to be problematic in the least and have used them on many viruses in the past.
