A Virus is not a thorn that you can remove with your hands. and you are surely not a doctor, so take your friend to the nearby doctor and make him take the required tests as suggested by him. VIrus canoot be removed but it can be killed with medication alone.
tell ur friend i wished him "get well soon"

Hi there,
I have actually just helped one of my friends remove this very same infection.
She downloaded the Free Trial of Prevx1 which scanned her computer and removed this and a couple of other infections on her PC that her other security programs had missed.
You can download their Free Trial from their homepage:

the simplest factor to do may be to run an antivirus disk like Norton Antivirus. It has a piece the place you could verify for viruses immediately from the disk. if that doesn't do the trick you could flow to a buddy's computing gadget and acquire the antivirus updates from the symantec website and then load them onto your computing gadget that way.

Get a decent virus checker for next time. Try AVG: free.grisoft.com
Someone else suggested Trendmicro, that's good too.
