How to remove virus called 'system.bat'?
This virus entered through a usb in my system. The peculiar thing about it is that whenever i scan my system using the antivirus(avira antivir), it deletes the file. The virus path is shown to be 'C:\Windows\system.bat'
But if i search the windows directory, there is no such file... Also, since this virus has infected my system, a new process called 'iph.exe' has started running... though the process can be terminated, but it starts again once the system.bat file is run...
It also happens that the virus just doesn't delete. Once the antivirus window pops up and i delete it, the next second the window pops up again... and it doesn't disappear until i restart the system...
Although it is not doing any harm currently, it might affect the system in the long run... I have tried scanning through various tools such as 'ad-aware' and 'spybot' but to no avail...
Can anybody guide me how to get rid of it permanently?
Thanks for reading through my query..

System bat is a spyware/adware problem. I would suggest you download the following Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and TR (Trojan Remover). Run both in normal mode and delete anything that they find. Start the computer in Safe Mode (Tapping F8 ket whilst computer boots) once in safe mode run both these programs again and again delete anything they find. I would also run your anti virus in safe mode. You should now have a clean computer. By the way run each of these programs separately and not at the same time. Good Luck
