Post by kazalala »

Well a herd of them i think:( my computer suddenly logged off and restarted, then i got warnings from my AVG progrmme saying i had been infected with Trojan horse Downlaoder .AGENT.AOON. when i clicked on heal it said it couldnt find the source file or somthing:-3 i did a scan and there is a big list in my virus vault, all the same virus. Also i keep getting a ittle pop up at the bottom of my computer where a red circle with a cross in is now visible. It says a spyware infection has been detected and anit spyware tools should be used to get rid of it, it also says windows will now install and download an anti spyware and to click on the cross in the red circle to protect my computer,,, but when i click on it nothing happens:confused:

Firstly you should download avg's free antivirus.. next if you have windows XP it is quite easy to get rid of the trojan horse. Run avg and it will heal ALMOST all the files.you will then be left with a file of the trojan (or several files depending on which it is) in your restore file.

Make a note of the numbers that avg comes up with these will be cpy files.then you will need to unhide all hidden files. this will result in showing your restore file DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE... next right click my computer.then right click properties.click the performance tab.at the bottom of that page click the file system tab.on the next page click troubleshooting.then on the final page find the disable restore file and check the box and click apply.you will then need to restart your computer.

It might start in safe mode but usually It starts straight up before looking for the files by hand, open my computer then open c drive and right click on the restore file you will be presented with a chance to scan again with avg do this and you will probably find the trojan has automatically been deleted of not you will have to search for the files by hand and delete them. this sounds like a a lot of work but it only takes about 5 mins from start to finish once you have avg installed.

Dont forget to go back and enable system restore.

I found this site, most of it was gobbly gook to me, but it does suggest a software to use to remove it. Maybe someone here can make sense of the information given on the site. The software to remove it, is listed at very bottom of the page.

Clean The Net - Your guide to remove virus

The link does have some ummm....adult shots, but it is the only site I found that had anything to do with the trojan she mentioned. So scroll real fast to the bottom.

try disabling system restore and restart the pc..Run AVG again and see if they still report anything, my guess is they wont, then enable system restore again..
