trojan and joke programs

Hello and thank you for your time, I found this site and love it. I have run Housecall AV and it says I have a trojan called checkin.b (I think) and another possible joke program called joke russ.a. Housecall says they cannot be accessed and they will not clean or delete. When I run my Norton and AVG anti-virus programs they say my system is clean. If I have these running around in my 'puter I would really like to get rid of them. I tried starting in safe mode and searching for the files to delete them but it says they are in use. They are _restore\temp\xxxxxxx.cpy files and _restore\temp\fsxxxx.cab files. Any ideas? Thanks again.
