downloader.turown.A

[kerri_8734]

I ran my AVG today and found 1 file infected with the trojan downloader.turown.A but I'm not too great with this kinda thing so I don't know what to do in order to fix it. Can anyone help me?? The infected file is ...
C:\SETUP_TD.EXE:\Files\td.exe

[Mobo]

Download 'Hijack This! http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html
Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the " scan " button will change into a " save log " button.
Press that, save the log , load it in Notepad, and copy its contents here. Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.

Okay here are my results:
