Angry Fire need a "bug spray"

Recently after my Norton Antivirus expired, Being the cheap b*st*rd that I am, I installed the AVG free Antivirus program. Yesterday, after downloading wild tangent driver from shockwave, I was let know by the AVG shield that I had the a virus on my pc (trogan horse downloader.agent.as--> named tjtdyb.exe in my system32 folder. I ran a scan and at the end the AVG said that it could not be removed. It keeps on telling me that I have this damn thing everytime I log on. It's getting very annoying! I tried removing it from my pc manually but it was a no go.

Is this really a bad virus or is the AVG interpreting it as one? Or do I just need a antivirus to remove this file from my pc?

I also noticed that after that first warning I no longer can log on to my ebay account. After typing in the password, I just get the same page only my password is not there and is like that always from that page. But if i do a search for an item (after trying to log on from the log on page) and the try to go to my ebay page i get in Go figure??? Did this virus do that or is it something else?

All help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
NoClue

where is the file located on the computer. where i have been seeing that a lot lately is just in System Volume Information. if that is where it is, to get rid of it, just turn off system restore and turn it back on

hi Hobey,

Thanks for the reply. It is in my C:Windows/system32/tjtdyb.exe

Excuse my ignorance but how do you turn off system restore?


Thanks,
