Try AVG anti-virus to get rid of it. If that doesn't work, go to safe mode and try the scan there. You could also try a repair of your operating system (get your installation CD, choose install, the disc will check for previous operating systems and then you'll get an option for repair. If you don't get that option, then exit setup.) This trojan isn't as well known, and I ended up with chinese forums investigating it.

Well, these are the trojan Viruses which makes your personal information send to a person which originally created it... lets take an example that if you download any software from net and someone bind an virus into it, then when you first time install that software then the trojan automatically entered into your system... And when ever you login to yahoo ,gmail, mylot... all your activity is written into a log file and then it sent over to the person via an email, thats basically the trojan horse. And its very dangerous as you see that it sends all your password, userid to other via email... So better to upggrade your antivirus and also do install an antispyware also... and change your all online account password, so that you will safe enough. Keep posting!!!

I don't know if there is a difference between deleting and putting into quarantine. I usually do the latter when it asks. I'm afraid to delete in case it is more than the virus that is being deleted. You might see if it is attached to a particular file and see if you can delete the file if it is not something that you need. Unfortunately I did that with one file and I had to reinstall something because it was a vital file. I was not able to find any information on this, but I have recently found others that I had not had before. You might want to consider reinstalling your operating system to clean up your system.

I have not come across this personally but based on your description I would wager it is a resident trojan that is being loaded by a newly installed startup program or process. The person who said to go to Safe Mode was correct as you need to attack these malware from outside of Windows but I have seen cleverly designed malware that is loaded even in safe mode so my best solution is for you to deploy the Ultimate Boot CD for Windows ("UBCD") - a freeware tool - and run its battery of malware removal tools from outside of Windows. Of course this may be easier said than done as depending on the design and intent of your trojan, it may behoove you to download the UBCD from a friend's computer. Also you will need, obviously, a CD burner to burn a fresh copy and have some intermediate skills to understand the burning process. Building and burning a new copy of UBCD is really simple - especially when compared to previous versions - so try this and you should be good. For the record, I have deployed the UBCD to remove more than 30,000 cases of malware from a single system and often deploy it to remove the ultimate virus... Norton!

I had three of that 3 months ago. I scan it with AVG and then locate it then delete it after. I was familiar with it since it seems to be present in my computer all i do just delete the folder where the virus is located.

Generally Trojans are dangerous and then to a good anti-virus and scan your computer and move the file to the quarantine.
