After ridding myself of this a couple of weeks ago, it's back. I'm running AVG, Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and Sygate Firewall.

Spybot still finds the DSO Exploit (even though I've fixed it per the sticky) and Ad-Aware keeps finding this Downloader trojan (which AVG REFUSES to detect ). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for taking a look!

Thats a clean log. Read the revised sticky about DSO Exploit and set Spybot to ignore it under the conditions mentioned.

Where is AVG detecting this problem?

I reset Spybot to ignore the DSO Exploit (thanks).

When I run Ad-Aware, an AVG window pops open telling me that this trojan has been detected & to run AVG. Here's where it says it is (I actually get the pop up window twice in a row, both windows pointing to the same directory):

C:\DOCUME~1\DaveV\LOCALS~1\Temp\AAWTMP\C204843\wup dt.exe

Go to Start> Run and type cleanmgr

In the popup windows, put a checkmark in Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files and Recycle Bin and click Ok. This will empty the folder and should get rid of your trojan.

As much as I'd like to say that this worked, it did not. As soon as I finished running 'CLEANMGR' - I ran Ad-Aware (just to make sure) and got the same pop up message of there being a trojan at the above directory. Is there anything else I could try?
