You have a problem.. DONT BE A SHOT GUN.. Just create one thread for your problem....
So do you want answers here on in the other thread?
BTW: Do a search on the symantec - Security response site.. look for Agobot or Gaobot..
and the message the AV scan gave you would have given you a version number ie gaobot.ag or sim.. You need that to correctly remove..
