Banload manual removal. Safe?

While checking my pc files with the anti-spyware (one by one) i found the banload trojan. Bad thing is that it will just detects it when i do the scanning of 1 file per time and not if i run a full scan, hence it will not remove it.

I looked around and found a few possible ways to remove the trojan

(favorite one:

1. Click the "Start" menu and type "inetinfx.exe" in the "Search" text file. Click "Enter."

2. Left click each result returned for "inetinfx.exe" and select the "Delete" key.

3. Conduct a second search for "rbuilder.exe" and delete all files returned when the search is complete.

4. Restart your pc)

, BUT... in more than one cases, i also found warnings saying that it is not advisable to manually remove it, but instead let the job to the appropriate programs (that i have to go and find).

Anyone knows if it could be really harmful to do the job manually, or could it do the job?
