    Restart into safe mode with networking.

    Download and install the following.

    Run scan and follow instructions.

    Malwarebytes AntiMalware http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

    This will clear it up for you.

    You should have a real time scanner installed so you can reduce the risk of such infections in the future.

    Malware Description:

    Trojan.win32.agent.azsy is a malicious application which is primitive in its size and essence but extremely dangerous for the compromised system when it comes to the possible impact it may produce. Trojan.win32.agent.azsy is written in C++ programming language and has as little as 439Kb in size. Trojan.win32.agent.azsy infiltrates the target host computer via firewall flaws and other minor security splits. This intrusion is undetected and usually remains obscure all the way until a professional antivirus utility is used. When inside and active, Trojan.win32.agent.azsy parasite launches the malicious campaign for promoting the affiliated rogue anti-spyware program called Personal Antivirus. For this purpose, Trojan.win32.agent.azsy uses the tactics of triggering exaggerated popup alerts and even bogus system scanners that will try to scare the victim into thinking he/she has multiple security issues and malware threats. Such technique is a component of Personal Antivirus promotion campaign, so Trojan.win32.agent.azsy may be considered an integral part of Personal Antivirus fraud, so its timely detection and removal is of critical importance. It’s worth mentioning that some antivirus software may detect Trojan.win32.agent.azsy as Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent.aoth, which is basically the same. No matter in what shape and how Trojan.win32.agent.azsy infiltrated your system, this dangerous infection must be immediately removed from your system. Trojan.win32.agent.azsy installs rogue anti-spyware and makes the compromised computer vulnerable.

    Sounds like a rootkit virus it can hijack your browser but without any windows open it can send you to advertising sites etc. Download "rootkit revealer" from Microsoft or Sysinternals and run it, These things can disable normal antiviruses and anti malware. Go to Task manager and under processes see if there is an oddnamed process sometimes just random letters and or numbers and end process. Then go to Start>run and type in msconfig and click OK, Look under the "startup" tab and uncheck the same process name if it appears there. The registry will need to be cleaned up but normal programs should be able to do that when you have disabled the rogue program.

    I had the trojan before. Thats from going to adult sites that I was not suppose to be going too. (Don't ask about that okay, I was curious)

    You can either go to a computer shop and ask them to fix it, or you can whip the computer out yourself and start from scratch. It's better of this way depending on how long the Trojan been in your computer it will get into every file possible so you can never fully get rid of it.

    Here is a link that actually might help you get rid of it with out deleting everything. "Might"

    You just need a good auto removal/protection program. I recommend Spyware Doctor or Anti Virus PLUS.
