some info there on it. for free anti virus you could try avg or anti vir both good free programs
also since it looks like a trojan you may wish to try a free program called ewido its a very good trojan horse cleaner and works well with anti viruses which sometimes miss trojan horses
hope they help

anyway, try ad-aware as thats always a fantastic program to use! PM me if you need one step up

from basic, otherwise any standard anti-virus program like norton etc. they have 30 day trials on there website, just download the trial, clean your PC then un-install your PC, if you like the trial, dont forget to buy it.

Ewido security suite picks that virus up if I remember correctly:

Might be worth running Stinger in safe mode too if the PC's in a bit of mess:
