Hello.

Microsoft Antispyware found Trojan.KillReg on my system. Yesterday I
discovered Trojan.KillReg when Microsoft Antispyware did a scheduled scan of
my system and I deleted the trojan.

However today Microsoft Antispyware found it again so this time I've
quarantined it. If it comes back how can I remove it from my system?

I try to be careful about my security. I surf the net using a limited
account in XP and I even use my HOSTS file to block sites.

I have XP home edition with SP2.
AVG antivirus (up to date)
ZoneAlarm.
Microsoft Antispyware.
Spybot S&D.
SpywareBlaster.
MailWasher.

typically its downloaded from the internet or sent to you disguised as
something else. What could be doing that? Who else uses the computer besides
you? What sites do you go to on a regular basis? Do you open every bit of
nonsense spam email you get?
