The removal procedure depends on the files.
Make sure your anti virus is up to date.
Check the anti virus manufacturers web site.

Since this is a Windows Update newsgroup, you should ask this of your anti
virus manufacturer or a virus newsgroup:

There are anti virus News Groups specifically for this type of discussion. This is the
wrong place to pose such a question.

alt.comp.virus
alt.comp.anti-virus

If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 5.0,
then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions that are prior to JRE
Version 5.0. There are vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being exploited.
It is possible that is how you got infected with malware.

Therefore, it is highly suggested that if there are any prior versions of Sun Java
to Version 5 on the PC that they be removed and Sun Java JRE Version 5.0 Update 6
be installed ASAP.

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

2) Dump the contents of the Mozilla FireFox Cache { if you use FireFox }
Tools --> Options --> Privacy --> Cache --> Clear

3) 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

4) Re-scan your system using your anti virus software.
