You will have to use an anti-virus software for cleaning out a virus-infected PC.  Just run the software and it will detect and clean the viruses.  You can buy commercial software like Norton or McAfee or download and install free anti-virus software like AVG.

The only sure way to get rid of it is to format the hard drive and reinstall windows. The people that allow your PC to be infected with this stuff get better and craftier every day with methods for circumventing anti-virus and spyware protection. Its a never-ending battle. You are better off just formatting the hard drive every couple of months and you will never have the problem again.

There are a few things you can try:\nSymantec's web site has a comprehensive list of viruses and the removal tools for them.  They also have an online scanner that should remove the virus.  Microsoft has a new service that checks and scans your computer for viruses and clean them out.  Trend Micro is another company with an online virus removal service. see website list below:

Try my advice from a previous post....\n\nDepending on the severity/quantity of viruses, you may want to look into:\n\n1) If you have an anti-virus program, run a full scan on your system. Look for McAffee or Norton antivirus tools in "programs" for starters.\n\n2) If you have no antivirus program installed, try AVG free addition. It is easy to install and you'll receive regular updates to counter new virus attacks. You can also use tools to run full scans on your system. You can download it at: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl\n\nOr, try the following link:\nhttp://housecall.trendmicro.com/\n\n3) If a PC is plagued with viruses, your best bet is to clean the system BEFORE it boots. This can be done by using some free tools available. Check out:\n\nhttp://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/intro/\n\nYou use PE Builder to make a bootable CDROM that loads a windows-like interface in memory. Because none of your hard drive files are locked they can be cleaned of any viruses. BartPE provides free McAffee plugins that you can run to accomplish this. WARNING: you have to fairly computer savy to work with BartPE. You may want to recruit a friend to help. It's more work, but I've found this to be the most effective way to clean your system.\n\nHTH,\nD
