    How to remove adware from my computer?

    I scanned my computer today with Avast which tells me that there's a
    Adware found in Disk E on my computer.
    but the bad news is Avast can't move this Adware, I've googled it and
    tried a whole lot methods to move it, but it doesn't work!!
    So, I was wondering someone could offer me some good tips? For
    instance, is there some kind of software that can actually remove this
    one? (p.s. the operating system I'm using is XP)

    Thanks for you help and nice day.

    What is the adware it is reporting? Could be a false positive for all
    you know. Never trust any anti-spyware/anti-virus software to be 100%
    correct. They often report false positives.

    And for sure don't download anything from this fool/leach. If he was really
    an MVP, then the MVP site wouldn't have blocked him in their very excellent
    hosts file.
