virus: Trojan Horse Downloader .Istbar.3.AE

[kp]

Hi,

my computer was infected by "Trojan Horse
Downloader .Istbar.3.AE", although my anti virus sortware
(Grisoft AVG) can detect the trojan but it cant remove
it. I have tried to remove the infected file directly
from my computer but it doesnt work as well. Anyone plese
tell me how to remove the trojan?? thanks a lot...

Hi

Does AVG say why it can't remove the virus?

References to 'Downloader' could be spyware. Try the following programs:

Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html

Go here: http://tinyurl.com/rcgw it has detailed instructions.
haven't tried them yet- but hopefully it will work- I'm having thi
problem too. Ad-Aware and Spybot don't work. They tell you it's ther
but can't remove it.
