AVG detected two viruses on my system. lstbar.4.BL (infected file ysbactivex.dll in Documents and Settings folder) & PSW.bispy.B (infected file Win32 systems folder biprep.exe). I tried using vcleaner in safe mode but the viruses are still there.

try a trojan remover & be sure to disable system restore

Asus A7N8X-X
1800+ @8x210mhz
512mb PC3200
Ti4200/8X 128mb
WDC 60GB

Both of those files can be safely deleted completely (they are both linked to SpyWare - a quick Google search will confirm this). If you can't delete them normally, try in Safe Mode, & if that doesn't work use a program called 'MoveonBoot'. Afterwards, run Adaware/Spybot with System Restore temporarily disabled to check for other problems.

I also suggest going to Housecall (Trend Micro) and getting the free online virus scan
