No, summer that program you have and scanned with is the AVG Free Anti-virus program.
Good program for sure. But we also need you to download the AVG Anti-spy program, also version 7.5.
You will find that in the link that PP gave you. Follow his instructions there on the download, install and update. This should be run in safe mode and set to fix or quarantine anything found. It may very well remove your trojans but we won't know until you run it, have it clean and then save the log and post it back here.

At this point I've nearly completed step 2 of the process (installing AVG Anti-Spyware, Windows Defender, ATF), but I've run into a bit of a quagmire. My operating system came w/ Windows Defender, which seemed to work smoothly until a few months ago, possibly when my computer contracted its first Trojan virus. Every time I booted my computer, I would get a warning message saying that Windows Defender was blocked, or something of the sort. Knowing this, I just uninstalled the original version of W.D. and downloaded a new version, following your link. Just now, when I was trying to complete the installation process, right after I accepted the terms of the agreement, it came up with this message: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem w/ this package. The error code is 2889." Is there any way to get around this? Other than this issue, I think I'm ready to go.
