Nice job..
AVG cannot stand up to a trojan for anything.
Go out and purchase Norton Antivirus 2007 and run a complete system scan. This will take care of your problem.

Why does each and every person seem getting viruses right here? you may stay without an Anti-Virus answer and not get a deadly disease. have you ever been traveling dodgy web pages or some thing? the perfect answer is an entire equipment format (or production facility reset with disk). even nonetheless, in case you had stable up thus far anti-virus - AVG unfastened might do wonderful, then it is going to be waiting to do away with it.

Download and run SuperAntiSpyware from: http://www.superantispyware.com
Get the FREE HOME Version of this program. Install it, and after it installs check for an update right away. Then Scan the Computer using the "Complete" scan option.
Sit back and let it do it's job.... Usually takes about an hour , depending on the size of your harddrive. After it finishes scanning, remove what it found.
Good Luck

Go here and download the tool,
http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx
If it is in your operating system then microsoft will find it, remove it and repair any damage done.
Goto download.com and download Spybot S&D,
A Trojan is not a virus, that is why AVG did not pick it up.
A Trojan is Malware and will be picked up by a good anti spyware program.

To remove all the crap from your computer you will need to download and run a crap cleaner program. This combined with a ram maintenance program and your anti virus program should keep your computer running fast. I run my crap cleaner once a week and I haven't needed to reboot since. You can download the ccleaner from my page. Just go to it and click "downloads" and the cleaner will be on the top three pictured. While your there check out some of the other free stuff I have links to.

U should use Kaspersky Internet Security Antivirus, it's great to remove trojans and other potential threats, and u should run defragmenter in every 15 days.

unfortunately you have to format and setup xp again.
first find another clean pc to make recovery cd/floppy and open your pc with this recovery cd/floppy to clean.
because sometimes formatting notting enogh to clean some trojans and viruses

reformat. but if i were you, seek a professional help to avoid messing up your settings.
do a regular disk clean up or defrag next time. and its best if you stop opening pop ups, heavy graphic sites that has adverts on it, and porn sites...
