Find the fix on the Internet. (You need to know the name of the virus)

your only deleting a portion of the virus not the entire thing. turn off your PC then turn it back on and while it's booting look on the screen it should say "press F# to boot in safe mode" (for some it's F8 others F1 or 2 so you have to read) then run the scan and delete it that way. Also turn of any system restore so if you even roll your system back to this day it won't reinstall the virus on itself.
Also CPU is Central Processing Unit you mean you have a PC (personal Computer) virus.

One thing that people neglect to do before running a virus scan on already infected system is to switch off their "system restore" or else the virus remains continuously in back up.
You right click on "My Computer" click properties. click on the stytem restotre tab then check "Turn off System Restore on all drives and apply. Then run your virus scan again.
First of all, one of the easiest wey to stop online attacks is, STOP USING INTERNET EXPLORER. Ever noticed that add ons can be attached to that particular browser only. As well it uses ActiveX controls, whether you need it not. which allows your computer to be identified. Both Netscape and the latest versin of Firefox gives you the option to use ActiveX when it's actually needed.
Secondly, I would not recommend AVG to anyone. It's crappy and useless. I know from having to deal with repairs on infected systems that ran AVG. I would recommend AntiVir Personal edition, whic 100% free, updates and all. http://www.free-av.com.
This is what Linux users use when compelled to run Windows.
The recommendation to use Spybot, I totally agree with, it is the only Spyware/Adware program that identifies and removes Trojans.
Finally it appears that you are not running a firewall for something like this to have happened. Windows firewall if running on your system is quite effective. You need to ensure that it's on. If you are using a system that doesn't, I personally recommend the stand alone Firewall from Symantec, Norton Personal Firewall 2005. The 2005 edition includes an ad blocking software that is not in 2006 that would prevent you from clicking on things that you shouldn't.

ok few quick tricks, remove Spybot it catches just about no longer some thing anymore. receive undercover agent ware medical specialist Starter version it really is truly loose and has a significantly better detection price than both Spybot or Adaware. replace and test your workstation. i'd also recommend doing a loose on line test with trend Micro Housecall. it really is going to locate and sparkling some thing it unearths. reliable success.

try cleaning it with your computer in safe mode and system restore off, a lot of them hide in protected system files
