Despite having excellent security on our computer we have picked up a virus that I cannot get rid of!

Trojan:win32/sirefef.ab

My security picks it up and blocks it but it returns every time I turn the pc on. There are tons of sites offering to fix this serious threat but how do I know they are reputable themselves?

Has anyone had this virus and if so how have you got rid of it?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried another antivirus software?

If you can, try running an antivirus scan in safe mode, that could help as well
