Default Trojan Horse Viruses!!! HELP!!

I currently keep getting notification of two Trojan Horse Viruses that are on my hard drive but cannot shift. Can anybody recommend anything online that will shift them??

I have got AVG anti virus, Ad-Aware 6 and SpyBot Search and Destroy which can't remove them. I have also tried Trend Micro House Call, all to no avail.

Any help appreciated,

Craig.

What's the exact message given by whatever tells you that you have these "Trojan Horse Viruses"?

Jack,

The AVG shield keeps coming up with the messages that these viruses are located in certain areas and to run AVG anti virus to remove them which doesn't work.

The viruses are called :

Trojan horse IRC/BackDoor.SdBot.27.AD

and

Trojan horse Dialer.9A


Cheers,

Craig.

If either of them are running Craig, you won't be able to delete them. You have to stop them in Processes first'

The viruses are buried in obscure files/programs. One is in the notepad.exe program. There are about 5 of them and nothing seems to remove them.

Redkop,

I tried shutting everything down, I think thats what you meant, but it still didn't work.

Any other ideas,

Craig.
