quaranteen it or scan again in safe mode..........not sure of NAV05 works in safemode though. also try other AV programs if one does not work. some other good ones are AVG and SAV coperate.

You'll have to boot into Safe Mode to get rid of it.
To boot into Safe Mode, tap F8 repeatedly after you get past the BIOS during start up.

Have you tried running HijackThis in safemode? I'm sure it will pick it up. Also, try the most common options. Disable system restore, check for the existance of C:\WINDOWS\httpfilter.dll, unregister the dll (start >> run >> REGSVR32 /U C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\httpfilter.dll)

Do an adaware scan, delete your temp files. Remember do all this is safe mode and you should be able to get rid of it.
