Trojan horse Dropper Small.4.AG

If you delete the main c:\windows\inetpal folder it gets rid of it. The ordgin of this Trojan and the other 5 version is unknown

 

You can do that, but, it will still be in your programs file under New.Net, so you have to delete that too, I also got a Trojan Dropper.Small.6.L, AVG flashed a box on my screen when I was opening a zip file, that I had d/l'd a couple weeks ago at a screensaver theme website, now I have all these zip files, so I guess I should get rid of them, just in case. AVG said it could not heal it, so ZA told me how to get rid of it. I couldn't get the file zipped and sent to you, so that's all I could do. (My computer freezes when I try to send files?) But, maybe I could send you the other ones. TDS said it couldn't open the files it was in, so it didn't find it, I opened the file and scanned afterwards, but, nothing else was found. (The wise &^% wizard brought it to me too. Should I look anywhere else? Re-scan with the updated TDS?
Thanks!

It also puts a file for a toolbar called QuickSearch toolbar with a dll .
Look for that too.

 

My neice has an AVG Resident Shield pop-up that keeps coming up on her computer saying that she has this virus. Here's exactly what the pop-up says:

AVG Resident Shield
Virus
Trojan horse Dropper.Small.4.AG is found in file C:\System Volume Information\_restore{26CD2BFF-47B6-4AEB-9197-1C8FC9604755}\RP259\A0009753.exe

To remove this virus, please run AVG for Windows.

I ran it, but it didn't do anything. I put McAfee on her computer. It found/cleaned it, along with several tracking cookies. The message is still popping up. I updated/re-ran McAfee, and downloaded Anti-Trojan Elite and ran it as well. Both came up with nothing. However, the pop-up is still happening. What do I need to do to fix her computer for her? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I turned it off and scanned again. It didn't find anything. However, when I turned it off, it said that all previous restore points would be deleted if I did. I guess it deleted it before the scan? Anyway, so far...so good. Haven't had any more pop-ups about it anyway. Thanks.

Hi Jacky,

Yes, turning system restore off and rebooting your computer will purge all restore points, which would have also included the malware files that were also backed up in the system restore.

Good to hear your system is clean. Do not forget to turn your system restore back on again. You can find instructions on how to re-enable system restore in the link ronjor gave you.
