Fucking ass.

I downloaded an XVID codec of Kazaa cuz none of the ones on sites were the ones that I wanted.

When I clicked on the file, nothing opened, though there was visible loading going on.

That's weird I thought to myself. So I go to the Housecall site to do a scan.

Fucking 50 files infected with the Trojan 'Troj Revop.A' so far (Still scanning) and it says it can't be cleaned.

Can anybody help?

Give that a shot, first of all.

Umm, did you read my post? That's what I said I used to do the scan, and it's coming up as non cleanable :(

Edit-

False alarm everyone.

I read up on the trojan, and it's just some stupid adware/popup shit. I can live with that for awhile, as I'm planning on wiping this PC clean next week anyways.

Nothing to see here folks :p

Whoa sorry, I was thinking one thing and posting another!

http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/ is what I meant. Sometimes one scanner will get rid of something another won't.

If that doesn't work, you can go into your Windows Recovery Console (insert your install disc) and delete the files manually.
