Sound like womrs again, but since you have it packed down you can try to delete it in safe mode, but the odds of it working are slim.
Once a virus or worm gets into your memory...I kra ramba, Houston, we have problem...do you know that once it gets into your memory and you know that for sure, you will have to wipe out your memory to remove it.
Were talking major re-boot here and formatting your disc.
Removing your battery will not help.
You will need to have your boot disc ready and hopefully you don;t have any programs you want to save because worms that get into your memory are running their operation from there and if they spread any further into your Copmputer your doomed. Especialy the Mother Board...right now it seems isolated in memory so be preparrred to re-boot if your software can't remove it.

Use the free virus/spyware scanner offered by TrendMicro. It detects and cleans them. When using this Housecall the first time, it takes a few minutes for it to scan your computer so don't think it's not working. Well worth the effort!

Press and hold down the F8 key while you restart.
You will get a menu - select Safe Mode
Run your antivirus program, and pray.

"Downloader.Agent.uj uses Ring 3 "Rootkit"-Technology... Unfortunately, the ewido security suite is not yet capable of removing rootkits. You can get rid of this nasty by using F-Secures Blacklight"
