No you did not, or it would have been gone ;D

Send it to the chest and remove it from there. Also post a HijackThis log here and let us have a look at it.

It seems that Ad-Aware has nuetralized it enough that Avast took care of it.  Boo-ya for the home team!!

Thanks Eddy.
Kind of you to help me out. (on a Sunday!)

I'm trying to follow the instructions, but I won't be able to install a firewall...
Do we know the effects of this trojan to the computer?

Why not?

The effects are the same as with any trojan.

I don't know the first thing about installing a firewall.
I have a router connecting both a pc and a mac to the adsl ( I don't if this is relevant...)

I have just rebooted my pc after having run all scans by Avast and Adaware, and I don't hear that terrible warning that I am infected, so maybe I'm fine.

Do trojans all do the same thing? I thought some were more harmful than others... I guess I'm just too old for this stuff...

HERE are some definitions about trojan, worm, virus etc. I think that will explain it to you.

It could be your router already has a firewall build in. Check the manual I would say. If not it is very much recommended to isntall one.

Free software firewalls can be found at:
ZonaAlarm
Kerio
Sygate

OMG!  I was scanning with Avast when at one point the scan kinda stopped while scanning Windows. I waited and nothing happened, so I stopped and I'm starting again...

It has appeared again! I deleted it and I didn't get the message saying it couldn't be deleted like yesterday before doing the procedure.
I'm running another scan...

Is this trojan very harmful?

But yesterday I ran several scans after following your instructions, and avast didn't find the virus anymore, so how can it just reappear today?

Either you didn't remove it properly, or you got infected again. What file is reported as infected and what is its location?

You havent gotten rid of it, you didn't delete it or even better put it in the chest.
