If your anti virus software have not been updated or if it has been expired then it would not be able to remove the viruses out of viruses. If the version of your anti virus is pirated then also it will not be having all the features of its full version. I think you should try to remove this virus by using the latest version of an Avast Anti Virus. Click on the name of an AVAST of download it.

I have found that Aureate is an adware which keep on popping up an advertising program that displays banner ads and it can send a user information to the central server from where some more infected programs can be inserted in your windows machine without your permission. I suggest you not to click on the ads as it might redirect you to an infected web pages.
