Windows XP Win32/agent.dbx Trojan

[dteel]

Okay, forum. I need help with this strange Trojan "graft".

Windows Live OneCare picked up a Trojan with the name "Win32/agent.dbx". It appears to be grafted into a presentation program that I haven't used in ages AND it (OneCare) can't delete it or quarantine it. It does ID its location. So, when I attempt to uninstall the program where it is located I'm blocked from doing so and OneCare pops up identifying the Trojan again.

Is there anything off-the-shelf that can locate and elimate this nuisance? OneCare's help system is no help .

OneCare is a joke ... Trojans are not easy to eradicate.

This 'Trojan' is a particular nastie one ... I suggest you format your hard drive.
