I am not an expert but I also not a newbee when it come to computers, but this got me good!!!
I tried looking for information on the TR/Inject.k.6 Trojan my system picked up. I ran everything in my Malware and Antivirus software bank, but nothing worked. I'll give you an idea of what was ran:
***NOTE: Everything is up to date.
AVG 8.0 - detected the virus but could not actually find it, but kept telling me it was there in my system????
AD-AWARE 8.0 - also found the virus but was unable to remove it. It also found other that it was able to clean.
SPYBOT - Did the same as AD-Aware but also found the .txt file that was dumped with the virus.
MALWAREBYTES ANTIVIRUS - HELP DETECT IT BUT DIDN'T REMOVE IT.
AVIRA-Antivirus - Was able to detect it and clean the virus.

I used CCleaner to help clean up my pc.
I went online to above site to see it this virus was in their system, the only one that I found that seemed to have knowledge of this particular Virus was AVIRA. I used this site to help me figure out the best way to resolve my issue with computers.

SO, Many thanks to those who man this site and have the widsom and TIME!! to help others, like myself who have a clue, but just need some extra help! Thanks again keep up the great work.!!

By the way, would anyone know how to let some of the other antivirus companies know that this trojan is an issue and add it to their database?

You can submit files to jotti's virusscan or virustotal.com
In the "File to upload & scan" box, browse to the location of the suspicious file and submit (upload) it for scanning/analysis.

Most of the major anti-virus vendors participate in VirusTotal and Jotti's Virus Scan with their antivirus engines. Malware uploaded to these sites is distributed to antivirus vendors.

You can also submit suspicious malware files, using the instructions provided in step #5, How To Submit Suspected Malware to AV vendors. For submission to a specific anti-virus vendor see Submitting Virus Samples.
