Re: variant of Win32/injector.BQ trojan >> HELP!

I'm running Vista Ultimate 32 Service Pack-1 with all the

NOD32 antivirus, all up to date and always running. Even so
I got a variant of Win32/injector.BQ Trojan.
Now every time I try to browse a web site or even when
opening a folder a warning pops up that reads:

" you machine is infected with a virus and you should perform
a free virus scan.then a NOD32 warning appears saying:


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://free-viruscan.com/00/00/00/error.php

Description:

Access to the web page was blocked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.
The web page is on the list of websites with potentially dangerous
content.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It seems that NOD32 caught this, but my machine is already infected
as no matter what I do I can't get rid of the problem.

I have performed a full Antivirus and Windows defender scan, also
I installed Search and Destroy and Adaware, and after running these
there were some problems detected and apparently cleaned.but
still the problem.

All mi programs, my e-mail and others are working OK, but I cant
browse the web or open some folders.

Is there a tool to remove this?

I'll appreciate any help regarding this.

Thanks in advance.

PS: How I got infected when running NOD32, Windows Defender, and
my Windows firewall up and running, should I install a different
antivirus?

NOD32 is excellent. However, from your description of the issue you have
picked up some non-viral malware. Use a malware removal tool to get rid of
it.

Go through these general malware removal steps systematically -

You obviously don't need to run the antivirus scan unless you haven't done
so in Safe Mode yet. I see that you've already installed Spybot S&D, but I
don't know if you've scanned in Safe Mode, which is important. And
definitely try Malwarebytes' Antimalware program (details at above link).

When all else fails, get guided help. Choose one of the specialty forums
