Java/ByteVerify
Trojan Horse Generic.DGV

T H Generic. KYC

AVG (from Grisoft.com) can find them, and heal(?) them, but they re-appear the next time AVG is run - any ideas, please?

applet, Tell your friend to run the AVG virus scan in SAFE Mode. If any of those Trojan files are found in the System Volume_Restore folders he will have to turn off System Restore then restart the computer then run a virus scan in SAFE mode. If it comes up clean turn on System Restore again.
