How do you know? What application told you that? The very same application should take care of the removal too
 IF not, try an online virus scanner or give avast a spin.

I'm not sure but a quick google, suggests to me that possibly you've been duped by a nasty "rouge" spyware/AV application. From what I just read, whatever you do, don't buy the app that told you you have this infection.
Either do what I did and search google, or download some good freeware anti-malware like Spybot S&D, Adaware, Avast/AVG. Also there are some good online AV scanners (good for a second or third opinion) such as BitDefender, Panda and Kaspersky. Finally can't go past HijackThis, although you'll need someone knowledgeable to help you with reading the log and helping you fix it (you can break stuff if you do the wrong things - there are many forums where people will help you - maybe even on here, not sure). Good luck! |

If it is indeed a rogue, then RogueRemover and MalwareBytes Anti Malware can remove it.
