Trojans cannot be repaired since the are not the product of infection,but a standalone exectuable. Just delete it. If it doesn't work,try Boot-Time scan or check Delete on next boot if required when deleting file via avast! popup warning window.

That file was found By command as infected with an unknown trojan on my computer some time ago. Here is what I did:

I booted into safe mode
Deleted the file
Searched the Regestry and deleted all entries linking to that file

I have not had a problem since.
