Once AVG has found a virus it does one of two things. It either eliminates the virus through "healing" or if it can't heal the problem, it puts it in the "Virus Vault". Once a file has been put in the vault it can no longer harm your system. You can go to the vault and delete the file if you wish or just leave it there.

By the way, AVG is as good as any other anti virus software available today. Just be sure to keep your definitions up to date. As a computer repair tech, I will not allow Norton or McAfee to be installed on any of the system for which I am responsible.

Your AVG is doing it's job..

Leave it in the virus vault for a while until you see everything is working well. Then you can delete it.

Here are some free anti-spyware programs that are a great addition in the fight against spywares-

Download and install these anti-spyware programs:

Immediately scan with #1-

Always click the button to UPDATE before starting the scan.

Answer 4

Hi Ken. Well with my experience, I can say, that if AVG could spot a trojan, I guess there might be even more viruses residing in yr PC.

Thats bcause an Antivirus like AVg hardly catches any viruses, until and unless they are extremely common.

My Advise to you would be;

1.Download a good antivirus, like

(a) NOD32, free,and doesn't miss out on catching any.

(b)Kaspersky- download it, in the trial period, get rid of the virus, as good as the above one, just that it isn't free.

These 2 should get rid of your virus 99% sure, if not, get 'antihacker trojan expert'.
Again a trial software, but you can get wat you want in the trial period.


If all these don't work, well dude, you can simply reinstall windows, but before, erase all the system restore check points.

And yes, once you scan your PC, you SHOULD ALWAYS PUT THE VIRUS IN THE VAULT, OR QUARANTINE AREA, it would never ever harm your pc since it will be recognized by that specific anti virus.

Answer 5

No need to worry, avg has took care of it. If you will feel more comfortable, empty the virus vault, but as long as its in the vault its dead.
