Ok Everyone at school says "Man you gotta watch this video its sick!" so im like ok. But when i try to watch it (First mistake) it asks me to download a codec and i clicked cancel and moved on. Then i saw another link and it asked same thing so i downloaded it (for whatever reason) and i just found out that: Yay i downloaded a virus... How can i remove it. Whenever i try to open an application it says:
Your browser was hijacked by Trojan.Win32.Agent.akk
You need to clean your system immediately, in other casr it can be crashed soon!

Click OK to download the high-tech antispyware protection software!(Recommended)

I click no everytime because i think its gonna make it wors because of "high-tech" doesnt sound like something windows would say. I used a scanner and found Trojan.Vundo file and it said it may have secretly installed itself downloading a plugin or codec but i cant remove it without buy ing full version! Any ideas??!!

It says it is a trojan.win32.agent.akk virus? It pops up in a window saying that. Could that be the virus itself?

I don' know what you are doing watching that sick video... but you obviously are infected and not just with a single thing from the looks of it.

Vundo and the Trojan you've mentioned appear to be two separate infections and you would do well to invest in a proper security suite (antivirus, firewall, antispyware, etc) from a RELIABLE vendor (mcafee, norton, kaspersky, etc) that can properly protect you (from yourself).
If you have these properly installed and properly configured and kept completely up to date then they should warn you before allowing you to infect yourself with some bad codec and anything else.

If you do not know what you are doing then I would advise you to skip to the part where I tell you to find a reliable and qualified technician who can sort things out for you now before you make them even worse... and you may get out of this without any data loss.

Whatever scanners you are using are infecting you even more. Half the hings people recommend will end up infecting you more as they are often rogue programs that do exactly the opposite of what you want.

You can TRY going to http://housecall65.trendmicro.com and running a web based scan to at least attempt to get a beat on what's really going on and possibly it will also remove them. However, if you are going to keep using rogue scanners and not investing in proper security then you may as well let it eat your system now and save us all the trouble.

Good Luck

Use the Symantec Trojan.Vundo removal tool. See

Run Vundofix:

Then run Smitfraudfix (note that some AV's detect this as potenially dangerous application, but it is safe, google it for more info).

Also I recommend you download and run SUPERAntiSpyware, A-Squared free and AVG Anti-Spyware scanners.

Run all of the above programs in safe mode. To do this, keep tapping F8 (usually F8) when your PC is booting up, and it then select it to run in safe mode.

I've simplest heard approximately this video and it used to be adequate to get me so nauseous I virtually received unwell. It took awhile to recover from this sense. I certainly not desire to look it. I'm no longer even curious to desire to look it.
