Infected with " " Trojan.Win32.Generic!BT " " - how do I remove it?

I only just got this computer back from the shop 2 months ago and already it is infected. Ad-aware has picked it up and supposedly quarantined it.

Now - how do I get rid of it? Preferably for free.

    A Trojan horse, or trojan for short, is a term used to describe malware that appears, to the user, to perform a desirable function but, in fact, facilitates unauthorized access to the user's computer system. The term comes from the Trojan Horse story in Greek mythology. Trojan horses are not self-replicating which distinguishes them from viruses and worms. Additionally, they require interaction with a hacker to fulfil their purpose. The hacker need not be the individual responsible for distributing the Trojan horse. It is possible for hackers to scan computers on a network using a port scanner in the hope of finding one with a Trojan horse installe.

    if it is quarantined then you shouldn't have to worry about it anymore but the antivirus and the antimalware that i put on here will help and make sure it is deleted
