Trojan Downloader in adaware backup file

I did an AVG scan this morning and it came up with this virus: Trojan horse Downloader.Agent AQN. Is this usual to get something like this in adaware of all things?

 

I have seen this many times, its the backups that Ad-Aware creates not the program itself. That's the thing with most program, they detect each others backups.

Just delete the backups within the Ad-Aware and you'll be okay.

 

Thanks for replying bjgarrick; i have looked for the backup file but cannot find it, do you have any suggestions as to where it would be. Also, if the Virus detected this morning is in the AVG virus vault, will this happen again? Thanks.

 

As long as you keep the backups deleted it shouldnt. If you removed it, it shouldnt come back unless your unprotected.

Open Ad-Aware and click on "Open Quaratine List" and delete all of these.

 

Thanks again bjgarrick; should i delete the stuff in the AVG Virus vault?

 

I would!

 

Thanks , just got rid of them (3). It was good of you to take the time to help, much appreciated.
