    a worm and a trojan or other virus? I'm having to remove that I-worm/ locksky off my computer and am looking up info as how to remove it. I don't see the word "worm" specifically on the major dude's virus removal instructions, or maybe I missed that?...AVG initially cleans it then upon re-boot it comes back.

    If you were to follow the thread in the malware removal forum, found here, you would almost assuredly be rid of it.

    Here is what returns when you search AVG's virus encyclopedia for i-worm. If you were to be even more specific, I'm certain you could find the exact removal instructions.

    Yes, I'm going to try the really LONNNNNGGGG directions first to try and remove it.

    When I went to your link and typed in I-worm locksky, it returned no results.
