Help, cant remove sdkal32.exe

[Joe]

Ive got a Trojan program that is chaning my home page and possibly
more. It will not let me change the properties (marked as read only)
and cant delete it.

Adware finds the program but will not remove it.

Here is the line from Adware:

Win32.Agent.Trojan Type: Process Category: Malware
Object: c:\windows\sdkal32.exe Comment: none listed

Can anyone help me with this? Is it ok for me to use IE while Im
infected with this thing?

Thanks,
Robert

Hello:

I have had problems removing certain viruses such as java viruses and
trojan horses. I use F-Prot, Avast, AVG, and Trojan Remover. Whenever
I can't get rid of some pest with these programs, I use Panda Active
Online Scan. It always works for me and does things these other
programs can't. Just my little bit of advice.

Try deleting it in safe mode.
Alternatively, you could rename it, reboot and then try deleting it.

It seems odd (in fact scary) that something working through the internet can
accomplish something that can't be done locally.

Ive tried renaming it and then deleting but to no avail. Ill try to
get rid of it in safe mode next.
