I have the problem specified in the title, apparently there's no quick fix for it, any help regarding this matter would be appreciated. also, what does it do? i've just seen reports that it's a back door not what it actually does, but if its not going to steal my passwords/info i don't really care about it.

run anti spyware scan, just make sure anti spyware is genuine and updated. if you don't use anti spyware yet, i recommend Malwarebytes Anti Malware. good luck! tc;

i used avg free and lavasofts ad aware, but they only caught the same three things over and over again, THANK YOU for the suggestion. one thing though, it kept catching things it couldn't delete, even after i restarted the comp. i ended up running smitfraudfix.exe, and it killed the active processes that kept it from being deleted. in case i wasn't clear, my comp is fixed, the help was very much appreciated.
