There is no removal tool avaliable. Iworm.Yaha.M (avg) is W32.Yaha.K. You will have to follow the manual removal instructions.

First go here and copy the removal instructions:
http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.yaha.k@mm.html
Then go here and download and run the .exe file association fix.

After running the .exe fix, boot into safe mode and run AVG. If it hasn't been damaged by Yaha, it should be able to delete the infected files. If AVG can't remove them, follow the manual removal instructions.

** Even if AVG is able to delete the files, you will still have to follow the removal instructions for removing the registry run entries.

Hello Thraso,
Both virus dezscribed here are Trojan's....
Try to use the freeware Trojan Remover 4.93 version, and follow the requirements to eradicate them.

it doesnt let you access anything. since you havent noticed it it might be triggered on deleting the worm files in the system directary. if you think you have it just let me know, i had it and got rid of it within a few days.
