Hello,
first my anti virus, avg free edition reported there was a trojan attack
Had you tried scanning using some other Anti Virus software other than AVG. I had used AVG in the past and noticed that (somehow) computer gets infected even after AVG is installed and many times AVG justs notifies user about viruses and cannot delete them (well, that may be my personal opinion). Well, if you would really like to solve this problem, then I would prefer you to download and install Avast anti virus (it's FREE) from
here. When you would be installing, Avast would prompt you for an boot time scan. Select to run Avast boot time scanner and then when you will restart your PC then Avast will run a boot time scan to see and remove any viruses on your system.
If that doesnot helps then you will need to manually search for the malicious file(s) and restore file type associations for all extensions. But first perform a Avast anti virus scan (remember to first uninstall AVG and then install Avast) and post back if that helps. If not then we will TRY to manually remove malicious file(s).
So try scanning using Avast and post back the results.
Hope this helps.........
