Have carried out ALL your instructions and hope its completely gone now.

I have downloaded the Comodo firewall, I will install and give it a try and hope it doesnt slow my computer down too much!

THANK YOU mauserme for your time and help.

My screen saver runs Avast when I leave the computer for a while, when I came back it had found this:

PC .Sign of Win32 trojan-gen{0ther}
has been found in C:\ Vundofix Backups\nietnds.dll   :(
No problem - you can delete everything in the VundoFix backup folder and then empty your recycle bin if you use it.  Its just a backup made during the cleaning process.

The Windows Firewall and your router both give good inbound protection but no outbound protection.  I think you'll be happy with Comodo - its one of the best for outbound.

Oh, and you're welcome  :)

I'll make the same suggestion.

Hi wendysnest,

Also switched to COMODO, together with COMODO BOClean two of the best proggies for your comp.
Do not weigh heavily on the cycles. And do the job, firewall and protection program agains trojans etc.
COMODO is good.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
