Go to www.grisoft.com and download the free version of AGV antivirus. It is an excellent program which includes a built-in trojan remover.

Thanks i did that, and it repaired 8 viruses and put the other 13 in the vault. I emailed their tech support but have gotten no response back with what to do with the other 13?

Delete them if you can.
A other good place is http://housecall.trendmicro.com that will scan your computer online.

Delete them out of the vault - you don't need to keep them.
