Hi

I have tried many leading anti-spyware to get rid of below two but can't;

Trojan.VideoCach/Gen
Trojan.Net-MSV/VPS

Are there any anti-spyware that can get rid of these?

Many Thanks

Regards

Format hard drive works. Before I do that I try Avast boot time
antivirus or better yet remove the hard drive and scan from a clean
workstation using a usb caddy. Or you can try BartPe and scan using an
AV.

I thought you needed an avti-virus program to remove trojans, not spyware
programs.

You're not going to like this, but if you're compromised the only way
that you can be sure you've removed the malware, and malware that you
don't know about, is to wipe/format the machine.

You can run 10 different anti-malware tools, run them multiple times,
and even if they run clean, you just don't know for sure.

Salvage your data, back it up, then wipe and reinstall.
