Run your AV program? If you know you have the virus, just delete it yourself.

Here is a Removal Tool for the trojan. However after you have run the removal tool you may be required to do some additional stuff, so read the information on that page first. I also recommend that you read here as well.

Update your Anti Virus Software! And then run a scan

You can also try downloading

http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html

Which scans your computer for viruses and will not clash with your anti virus system, once installed make sure you update it and then run a full scan.

If you don't have an Anti Virus program well.. seriously.. tut tut to you, try getting a free one like Avast or AVG.. but paid for ones are usually better and have more security features.


Also!! i have found that it says if you can Kill the process as soon as possible go into task manager and end it!

I already tried deleting it manually, but it said that the file (recycle bin) was full or read-only or something like that.
