I suggest you to run a safe mode scan for the deletion method for Win-Trojan/Agent.555597. This scan takes place when the infections are not active. This is because the infections are not able to execute in the safe mode and hence, the antivirus finds it easy to remove the same. You can go into the safe mode when you start the computer. This is an assured method to get rid of the infections from the system.

For the deletion method for Win-Trojan/Agent.555597, I would advice you to install AVG antivirus in your system, since it has been recommended by the experts that it can remove the infections like trojans, worms and virus. So, run a full system scan, including the hard drives and your flash drives too and eradicate all the unhealed infections that are detected during this scan.

A system restore will help as a deletion method for Win-Trojan/Agent.555597. For this, you will have to go into the safe mode when you start the system. It is required that you enable the system restore to a time, when you are sure that the infections had not entered into the system. It is to be made aware that this will also lead to a loss of all the installed applications and softwares.

The deletion method for Win-Trojan/Agent.555597 and all other kinds of infections is to format the system and to install a fresh copy of the operating system that you are using in your computer. If you keep the infections persisting in your system, then it is also possible to lead to a system crash too. So, I recommend you to format the computer as soon as possible.
