Trojan keeps reappearing

My computer has been infected with trojan-clicker.win32.costrat.gb. I have ran Kaspersky in Safe Mode with System Restore disabled and even though Kaspersky says it's been deleted, the trojan keeps reappearing after each reboot.

Try Cyberdefender. I have been using the paid version now, and it is much more complete then AVG. Maybe it can take care of your win32.costrat.gb problem.

I agree with alicein1derville, Cyberdefender is the way to go. When I got a virus on my system througha flash drive, AVG didn't catch it. The free version of Cyberdefender cleaned it up and a few other viruses.
I upgraded for the computer help support and the 2GB online back-up and 24/7 help line.
I've been more than happy with the upgrade purchase. CYberdefender all the way!
