    I had some spyware a week or so ago, but thanks to your sticky (DO NOT POST UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THIS: How to: Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal) got rid of everything. I regularly use Spybot, Adaware, CCleaner, a-Squared, Stinger, CWshredder and SpywareBlaster.

    a-Squared keeps finding the "Tronjan-Dowloader.Win32.agent.uj" three times each scan. Print screen also attached.

    I fix this each time, but this keeps coming back!

    Any ideas?

    The trojan is stuck in your System Restore points, you'll need to turn off System Restore and reboot to clear the restore points, scan with your AVs and if clear re-enable system restore.

    Thanks, haven't thought about that, but now it makes sense. I will try that tonight!

    Should I scan it and fix it with a-Squared (since it detects it) or should I use my AV? (I use F-Prot - full version, by the way)

    As Halo said, you have to turn off system restore and reboot. That's the only way to remove a restore point that is infected. Sorry, but that will clear all restore points on your system.
