I've recently scanned my computer with AVG Antivirus, and i find a downloader virus, a trojan horse, and a backdoor. I delete all of them and restart my computer. The next day I do another regular scan and there happens to be another downloader and backdoor virus. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of them and make sure they are gone?

Scan in safe mode. Tab F8 on startup and choose safemode. Also try AVG Antispy.

What do i put here if i don't put a question?

your problem is probably in the system restore. Turn it off and do your scan, then turn on system restore again.

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks
