It seems that I got three trojan.byteverify viruses this morning and have been unable to delete them as my Norton subscription has expired and its the only program I have that detects it. I have also tried using AVG Free Edition and Spybot S&D and neither of those programs detected it. Can someone please tell me how to get rid of this virus? Thanks

I don't know if this helps; found it via Google:-

In the Control Panel, open the "Java Plug-in Control Panel" 
Select the Cache Tab 
Click the Clear button inside the Cache Tab, which will clear your JRE cache directory.
Disable system Restore (this will delete all your restore points!)
Boot into safe-mode, then run AVG AV.
