It's a downloader trojan and if avast can detect it you will be able to send it to the virus Chest or delete it. In the Chest it will be quarantined harmless to your system.

Run an online scan using TrendMicro Housecall to see if it is detected: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

I suggest a Spybot run (www.security.kolla.de) and another with Ad-aware (www.lavasoft.de) to get rid of the other Spyware which the downloader maybe already downloaded...

Thanks for the reply, but I tried all online scanners
Norton
Trend micro
Panda

Because the Trojan already on the system and believe or not none of them could detect it.

The only one that really did something was RAV Antivirus.
But the online scanner only detected it. (It is was bought by Microsoft last year, so there is no update for it)
I got the info from the RAV online scanner and removed it manually.
 ;D

I posted here so that the aVast people should do something about it.

Thanks
