| I'm having a similar problem as the other people but my AVG virus detector is
| finding many, many javabyte/verify virus, not on the scan but as a regular
| popup on the screen. I can't heal,delete or move them to the vault as it says
| "Requested action is not available for this object" I am doing your
| "Housecall" scan as we speak. My virus's are "found" in the
| C:Windows\Temp\tmp files. I have cleared my Java cache and when that didn't
| work I deleted the Java program(?) off the computer and this message is still
| coming up.
| I was comparing AVG against NAV before I get rid of one of these off my
| computer and NAV is not even finding one occurence of this virus so whats
| going on? Is it a real virus or not? If it is, should I be able to get rid of
| it with the same message as the one below?

1) Dump the contents of your IE cache -
        Start --> settings --> control panel --> Internet options --> delete files

2) Dump the contents of your Sun Java cache -
        Start --> settings --> control panel --> Java applet --> cache --> clear
          or
        Start --> settings --> control panel --> Java applet --> general --> settings -->
        delete files

3) Download the following two items...

        Trend Sysclean Package
         http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp

         Latest Trend signature files.
         http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp

Trend Sysclean Method 1
---------------------------------------
Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\sysclean")

Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory.
Download the signature files (pattern files) by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt524.zip

Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
SYSCLEAN.COM.

Trend Sysclean Method 2
---------------------------------------
The utility SYSCLEAN_FE in "Procedure F" at the following URL
http://www.ik-cs.com/got-a-virus.htm automates the download and execution process of the
Trend Sysclean Package.

4) Disable System Restore
            http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
5) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode then shutdown as many applications as possible.
6) Using the Trend Sysclean utility, perform a Full Scan of your platform and
        clean/delete any infectors found
7) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform
8) Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any System Restore preferences,
        (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB),
9) Reboot your PC.
10) Create a new Restore point
