Running AVG 2012 identified a Trojan virus - Luhe.Fiha.A - but was unable to remove it. I then ran a full scan using Emsisoft Anti-Malware which also appeared to identify the virus but was also unable to remove it. I attach a file of the objects that could not be removed along with Emsisoft Emergency Kit scan report, OTL.txt and Extras.Txt reports as requested. Bob.

Hi.

Upgraded Java as instructed.

System (running Windows Vista Business) said it could not run Windows x64 (jre-6u27-windows-x64.exe) but Windows x86 Offline (jre-6u27-windows-i586.exe) ran fine.

Installed latest version of Adobe Reader.

Ran OTL.exe. Log attached.

Ran full scans with AVG 2012 and Emsisoft AntiMalware. Both returned clear.

Everything appears to be running smoothly on all User accounts & issue seems to be resolved. Thank you.

Bob.

If everything appears to be fine then it is time to do the final steps.

Now to remove most of the tools that we have used in fixing your machine:

• Make sure you have an Internet Connection.
• Download OTC to your desktop and run it
• A list of tool components used in the cleanup of malware will be downloaded.
• If your Firewall or Real Time protection attempts to block OTC to reach the Internet, please allow the application to do so.
• Click Yes to begin the cleanup process and remove these components, including this application.
• You will be asked to reboot the machine to finish the cleanup process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.

Empty the Recycle Bin

Download to your Desktop:
- CCleaner Portable

• UnZip CCleaner Portable to a folder on your Desktop named CCleaner

Run CCleaner

• Open the CCleaner Folder on your Desktop and double click CCleaner.exe (32-bit) or CCleaner64.exe (64-bit)
• The following should be selected by default, if not, please select:
  
• Click and choose
• Uncheck
• Then go back to and click to run it.
• Exit CCleaner.

Turn off System restore to flush all your restore points then turn system restore back on. See How To Enable and Disable System Restore.

You can delete and uninstall any programs I had you download, that you do not wish to keep on the system.

Run Windows Update and update your Windows Operating System.

Run the Secunia Online Software Inspector, this will inspect your system for software that is out-of-date and in need of updating. Update anything program/application detected as being out-dated.
