Is it dangerous? What will it do to my pc system?
Avira reported detecting this virus. I have run a system check and did not find anything wrong. Avir was last updated on 27.12.2007.

All I know that it is a " Trojan worm", and I would suggest that you install these two program to see if either one can find and delete. Download the free version of Superantispyware at http://www.superantispyware.com Run an indepth scan and if found reboot even if the software says can clean.
Download the free version of A2Squard from Austria. This program finds worms, rogue dialers, keyloggers, spyware, adware, malware and trace adware plus tracking cookies.
You don't say if Avira scanned and cleaned this Trojan Worm.

No it will not do anything now as they detected.
This is what it was!
Trojan-Downloader.SWF.Gida.A is detection of Adobe Flash files that have seen served over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and linked from advertisement sites. It injects additional HTML content to the viewed webpage which then serves malicious content.This virus is only
ten days old and is in avira's database.

If Avira reported detecting this virus,i am sure you
have taken their advice and deleted it.
Hope this helps.

A little checking found few references, but decoding the name: SWF, shock wave flash,Dldr, Downloader, gida.a, is the name of the program. It is a trojan downloader probably picked up in a torrent file somewhere.
You need better protection than Avira apparently.
