Trojan may be a thread of your computer but it's not the most dangerous virus..... U can download Kaspersky Anti-Virus2014 (it's the good choice to protect your computer)  and it'll solve the problem quickly just make scanning and delete viruses, but if it doesn't work I advice u to reformat to keep your information safely

Hi, the best way to fix a Virus problem is definitely restoring the computer to factory default condition, because when the hardrive sectors or operating system files are effected with Trojan or any kind of virus, it is not advisible to go into Registery files to delete it  by doing it you may accidently delete wrong files, by doing such again you have to reinstall the whole OS. As a work around try to run few Antivirus application which may remove the Virus, but most of the times it won't work, since your Hardrive already being hijacked with Virus(Trojan).
