Yes. Once installation and virus update are complete you can run a virus scan offline. However, you must connect every day or so to get virus updates.

By the way, more than one rating outfit thinks Avira Free Antivirus is better than AVG.

To remove this Trojan you need to download an anti-virus software called AVG by "Grisoft" (Search on www.Google.co.UK to find the website) It is FREE to download. Free updates and removes all trojans/virus's. I thoroughly recomend this. When you download it, update it (FREE) and run the complete test this will remove it and free your computer of this Trojan. If the virus is in the system volume information AVG will not pick it up. Follow the steps in this page and run AVG again. AVG should have picked up your virus this time.

AnswerMy AVG found Trojan Horse Dropper Generic, informed me and put it into the Virus Vault. (AVG said that it had 'healed' the virus ... oh yeah ?)I went into Virus Vault and manually deleted it by just using the 'Delete' button.Problem solved ... I think. So far, so good.- but the moment you run the scan, it will appear again.
