I was offline for several months, and only used my girlfriends laptop to access the internet. Occasionally i took a few downloaded files from my girlfriends laptop and loaded them onto my pc, which may be where the infection came from.
Anyway, i reconnected today and updated my anti-virus - avira - which immediately started giving me pop up warnings every few seconds of Trojans Vundo and agent2.crwg. They wouldn't delete, quarantine, or be denied access. I ran a full scan, and followed the instructions of my anti-virus, which rebooted my system and tried deleting the files via chkdisk, but it didn't work.

Now as long as i have my anti-virus on i just get constant pop ups that either freeze or crash my system when i try and go online, and slow it down loads for anything else. The only way i can get it to work long enough to post this message is by turning off my anti-virus.

Can anyone help?
