    js.downloader removal

    My computer was recently attacked by a virus called JS/Downloader.Agent and If i try to remove it with the AVG Antivirus which is installed on my computer it comes back again. Please tell me how to remove JS/Downloader.Agent virus or is there any JS/Downloader.Agent removal software. Thanks
    There's no such thing as "i can't" there's only "i don't know how"...

    * Restart your computer
    * Just before the computer begins to startup and before loading Windows press F8
    * A selection menu should appear
    * Select the line that says “Safe Mode”
    * At logon prompt, log in as the usual user.
    * During Windows Start process it will prompt you if you would like to continue running in SafeMode, press Yes

    9. This tool will also check if your wininet.dll is infected and will prompt:
    Replace infected file? Press Y and then Enter to replace you wininet.dll with the clean version.

    JS/downloader is related to java script.

    Then you will have to clear your java cache as described here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000020300.xml

    Then run Hijackthis again and put a check in the following:

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)

    Once the above procedures have been done then close all applications and browser windows before you click "fix checked".

    To remove JS/Downloader.Agent, you must first stop any JS/Downloader.Agent processes that are running in your computer's memory. To stop all JS/Downloader.Agent processes, press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to open the Windows Task Manager. Click on the "Processes" tab, search for JS/Downloader.Agent, then right-click it and select "End Process" key.

    To delete JS/Downloader.Agent registry keys, open the Windows Registry Editor by clicking on the Windows "Start" button and selecting "Run." Type "regedit" into the box and click "OK." Once the Registry Editor is open, search for the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JS/Downloader.Agent." Right-click this registry key and select "Delete."
