    Have you made sure a program doesn't have it locked up. some antivirus programs lock the virus up, because it doesnt know what to do with it. I have no Idea why, but try to delete your antivirus and reinstall them and you sure have it. and try pc tools antivirus

    Have you tried the AVG free edition download, I had trojans and this got rid of mine. I had three different ones and it took care of mine and keeps my computer protected and running fast. I didn't have the one you have, so if you haven't tried it yet, give it a whirl, it worked for me.

    Ouch. It's a password stealer. If you recently accessed secure websites like Paypal or your credit card accounts online, GO TO ANOTHER PC, LOGIN TO THOSE ACCOUNTS, CHANGE THE PASSWORDS.

    Don't go back to those accounts on the 1st PC until you solve this problem.

    What happens when you try to delete the .dll file? If you delete it but it re-emerges when you boot that's a ROOTKIT.

    How big is the risk? Open your History file with Ctrl-H. You may also have a symbol in the row of icons at the top of your browser that says History when you drag the mouse pointer across it.

    Drag your mouse pointer across History items for the last several days. If any look like secure websites, change the passwords IMMEDIATELY. If you don't recognize a website or it has an unusual location such as .ru (Russia), hover the mouse pointer over the link. If the link has your login ID and password, you are about to lose your credit rating and bank deposits.

    Here's my detailed process.

    Mcafee discovered this virus in 2005. It's a password stealer.

    Mcafee also recommends disabling your system restore after removal to completely remove this trojan from your system. You can re-enable it after re-start.
