    Dear all,

    Please can you tell me how to get rid of a virus programme my sister downloaded called 'Personal Antivirus'.

    AVG her installed antivirus scans this as a target in C:\Programme Files\Pav\Pav.exe

    Threat Name :
    Trojan Horse SHeurz.AETN

    Is there a programme tool to fetch it off. AVG suggests it's been vaulted when actioning the heal button but when she scans again the threat name appears again as active.

    Thanks

    Co9:(

    bootup in safe mode then run AV. Press F8 when computer booting if you don't know.
