I use Trend Micro PC-cillin on my new notebook computer which I have only had for a week. Also use Ad-aware and Spybot to control spyware. Decided to run a free online anti-virus scan at PandaSoft. Results.... Adware: oemil and viurs: Tri/Mitglieder.EW., which it could not remove. A system scan with PC-cillin did not pick it up. After researching the virus online and looking for ways to remove it, I could not find any of the files associated with it on my computer!! None of the associated registry entries either. What do you make of this?? Is my computer infected or is Pandasoft trying to sell their software with a trick??

It could just be a false positive. All AV vendors suffer from them, try rescanning your system again with Panda and see what it finds.

Find the suspect file and then scan it at jotti and Virus Total which use multiple AV scan engines, to confirm if its infected or clean.

You may also want to scan using the one of the following in safe mode (Getting to safe-mode) Sysclean you'll also need the virus template file from here lpt***.zip remember to extract the contents of the zip file into the same folder as Sysclean.com

or

DrWeb CureIT

or

KASFX which is powered by the Kaspersky AV engine, you will need internet access to update it. If you haven't got net access in safe mode, update it before you use it.

If your good with the command line also try Sophos Command Line scanner this command will scan all of your hdd's SAV32CLI.EXE -F -di -remove -dn -mbr -all -zip -p=avscanlog.txt and give you a log file to review afterwards.

If you think you are infected submit a hijackthis log to the HJT Forum.

How to submit a hijackthis log

If you feel you are infected you could try one of the other AV programs. here are aeveral free full featured antivirus programs. Make sure and only run one AV at a time. They don't play nice togther and may conflict if ran on the same machine at the same time. I have also icluded several online scanners and removal tools.
