So apparently I have a trojan...

Whenever I run an app or open a window, Antivir virus software notifies me that they have found a trojan and asks me if I want to quarantine, delete etc. and whatever I click, the same message comes up the next time I run anything. The file, xxyvtrQn.dll in system32 is the one they say is infected, but when I try to delete it manually, it always says there is a program using it. Can I get some help here?
 
Yes, safe mode is the only way to get rid of most viruses / trojans.
If the fill is still not deletable, get Unlocker 1.87 from here:

http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/

It will allow you to delete the file in question. It would be good to
know what Trojan you are dealing with as it may entail more
extensive work to be sure the system is clean. You may want to
run HiJack This from here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html
and start a thread on this site in the virus / hijack this logs section for
an analysis: http://discussions.virtualdr.com/index.php


 
"It would be good to know what Trojan you are dealing with as it may entail more extensive work to be sure the system is clean."

Yeah, i was going to suggest turning off system restore but wasn't sure if that would have been appropriate advice without knowing type of virus.
 
ok, so I successfully used the unlocker to delete the file and there no longer is that pop up by antivir telling me that I have a virus. I posted the hijackthis log in security because I need some help knowing what to delete if anything
