It appears to infect system files, but it's unclear exactly which ones. That's is why it can't be removed by the virus checker. I used the search term Bispy to find what I could on it, but not much specific information.

Try running Spybot or Adaware.

A lot of times, virus detection tools pick up spyware as trojan horses. The only thing about it is, they don't do a lot about the "virus" that it picks up. You still need to run something to fix the issue.

Where are they located on your system? A lot of the time these things are in your system restore folder & therefore cannot be fixed. If this is the case you need to disable system restore, run AVG in safe mode then set a new system restore point. All previous restore points will be lost!!
