If a virus has already broken through your defences, then you can try any type of Anti-Virus program! Nothing will give you anything to cheer. The best way is to format your system through a clean bootable CD and re-install all your softwares.

You must remember, that a Windows become more and more unstable with each passing day (as nearly all entries of programs installed and removed are kept in Registeries and other files which makes system more and more vulnerable). So consider it as a rule of thumb to format your system once a year to keep it running fast!

Get AVG free anti-virus, not only is iy free it's one of the best.
Or get a Dos virus checker. Boot up to command prompt only then run it. many virus are in memory when windows loads.

Hi Vickie,

When you attempt to remove these problems, don't just switch off system restore, do everything in safemode.

Get adaware SE from www.lavasoft.com
ie.

1. Switch off system restore
2. Reboot in safemode
3. Run your antivirus scan
4. Run adaware scan
5. reboot when all cleaned
6. Don't forget to switch system restore back on.

You may be left with one or two problematic viruses/trojans, but at least it will be a lot less work to remove them manually.

Try symantics website for step by step instructions for removing particular viruses

If you know which trojans and viruses you have search for specific removal tools.
