I've just found out I have the Trojan horse Backdoor FTP virus, can anyone tell me how to get rid of it? I've run AVG but it can't remove it. Help

I have the same problem, got a virus called StartPage-W, trojan horse that modifies the IE search and home page URLs, latest version of McAfee won't remove it, probably because the virus was only discovered a few days ago I guess (and yes I have the latest version).

I just checked out that site but I'm a total novice with a computer and don't fancy playing with the regedit.
I've not noticed any ill effects or anything yet but concerned that someone can gain access to my pc with this Trojan so want rid of it asap.
