Can someone pls recommend a free tool to clean infected files with VBS/Edibara virus

I've got some HTML files infected with VBS/Edibara virus. I need a freeware tool to clean these files. My anti virus is letting me detect the infected files and quarantine them but there's no option for cleaning the files. Is there a tool out there which can help me.

    I suggest you to download and install ESET NOD32 Antivirus, the latest version is 3.0, you can get it from http://www.nod32.com.sg/html/44/42/

    why must choose NOD32 Antivirus?

    Best Detection:

    ESET is the leader in proactive, precise threat protection with more Advanced+ awards for superior threat detection than any other vendor since May 2005. (source AV-Comparatives.org)

    Threat Sense™ technology detects more than 75% of new, unknown, threats heuristically - even before a signature update is available (Source AV-Test.org)

    ESET Threat Sense is the only antivirus technology that has not missed a single In-the-Wild virus in rigorous Virus Bulletin VB100 testing since May 1998. (Source virusbtn.com)

    Low False Positive Rate:

    A very low false positive rate ensures that the “good” files on your computer will not be flagged as malware. This is due to the intelligent synergistic use of advanced heuristics and generic signatures. ESET Threat Sense has produced the fewest false positives in its long history of testing with Virus Bulletin.

    Fastest Performance:

    42 MB/sec average scanning rate on Windows XP SP2 (source: Virus Bulletin).

    Up to 34 times faster than the leading brands under Windows XP

    Minimal Resource Utilization:

    Optimized engine uses approximately 38 MB memory on average.

    Uses less than 40M of disk space.
