If you are running XP, and you obviously are, you need to get rid of everything that is stored in the restore folder.

First, disable system restore, then reboot your comp with it off, then enable it again. Everything that was saved will be gone and so will the virus.

It worked for me and stopped the pop ups saying it was there. I scanned with AVG, MicroTrend Housecall and also the Symantec scan and came up clean!

How do you get rid of Trojan horse downloader wintrim Q?

Hello, there is a free antivirus program you can download called add. It located and removed the Trojan without affecting the infected program. If the virus is in your system volume information folder, you will need to allow your virus scan to access it. Check out theeldergeek.com, under system volume information folder, for info on access, then run your virus scan and allow it to isolate the Trojan horse. Go to Start /Control Panel /Folder Options (click the View tab)and uncheck both the *Hide file extension for known file types & *Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)-boxes, then OK yourself out. Then go to Start /Search /For Files or Folders option type up the NAME OF THE FILE & EXT (not downloader.wintrim.Q), but the actual name of the file, which would have shown up on your anti-virus software. Highlight the file and press Delete...make sure to empty your Recycle Bin.
