Detailed Description:

This virus is more of a nuissance then anything else, if you are constantly getting notifications that your computer is infected, and you have the icon in your systray telling you that you are infected, then that is the antigold virus. It is really adware, since the purpose is to constantly bug you with ads. You will have a file named screen.html in your windows folder (or system32 folder), and this will display advertising to you, simply delete that webpage. Also look for a file named hookdump.exe and delete it, it will also be in your program startup so it runs when you reboot. That should eliminate this adware.
