Hi dge31,

Try a boot time scan with avast! Right click the scanner screen, select ‘schedule a boot time scan’ and reboot when requested.

If you’re still having problems, look for and remove rootkits (hidden malware):

Panda Antirootkit

Blacklight

AVG Anti-Rootkit

Then run another scan with avast!

If the detections persist, post a HijackThis! log.

Why can’t avast deal with them, what errors are you getting, file in use, etc. what ?

As FWF said the boot-time scan should be able to overcome these problems. If you have XP or Win2k, you could enable a boot time scan. Also see http://www.digitalred.com/avast-boot-time.php

Deletion isn’t really a good first option (you have none left), ‘first do no harm’ don’t delete, send virus to the chest and investigate.
