Every time Wondows XP boots, AVG finds trojan downloader
Win32.generic.zie and generic.zoy. the filename is hocen.dll, and it
is in Windows/complus applications. You can delete this find or put in
vault. Either way, this trojan will be back thenext time Widows boots.
I thik it is because there is a registry Key loading it, putting it
back on the system each time. But I am reluctiant to search the
registry for a reference to it and delete the key. IS risky to delete
keys when you are not sure what you are doing. Avg is updating each
day....it obviously is incapable of dealing with it. I have searched
for info on this particular trojan, and Google finds next to nothing,
nothing of any help. But surely I am not the only on ein the world
with this trojan. What to do?

First, find another anti-virus. This should be an indicator to you
just how much AVG sucks. Kaspersky will and does remove it entirely.
Second, when you do scan, turn off your system restore first.

Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go
through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal
Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the
PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you
can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded
the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode
[F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run
in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive
PDF help
file. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm

And don't forget to get KAV/KIS through Art --- he needs the money.

BTW, Art, KAV's PDM doesn't like your frog. ;)
