How to remove Worm.Linux.Mare.D from my personal computer?

[RICO12]

I have bought a new computer and start using internet. The internet was working fine and I start to download new software from unknown websites. I was also getting email from unknown email id. Till my system was infected I was not worried about these download, but the bad news is that my computer system is affected by the worm named as “Worm.Linux.Mare.D”. I get to know about this worm when my antivirus gave a popup alert about this. My antivirus software is detecting this but unable to delete this “Worm.Linux.Mare.D”. I want to know the procedure for deleting this worm from my system.

I know the technical description related to Worm.Linux.Mare.D may this will help you to tackle with this problem. This worm is compiled with gcc. The virus scans for port 80 on random IP addresses. If one of these computers has a XML-RPC for PHP Remote Code Injection vulnerability, the worm sends several commands to the victim Once a computer is infected , the worm send a notification message on attacker server , port 25555. The worm opens 500 TCP connections at once while scanning for vulnerability on hosts. This increases CPU usage.
