Question by susan B: My antivirus software said I have a virus but finds nothing when I run a scan. What do I do?
last night i was on google and i clicked a website. before the page even finished loading a little thing from my antivirus software (Trend Micro AntiVirus) popped up saying “Trojan horse program found. Click the button below to find out how you should deal with this security threat. Trojan horse: TROJ_XMLOIT.A Action taken: Unable to clean.” when i clicked the button it told me to run a virus scan.
so i did. twice. but it doesn’t find anything. what do i do?

I suggest you run a scan with malwarebytes .
you can get malwarebytes here,
this is a direct download link
so you should have no trouble getting it.
click on this link and then select run.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/affiliates/2-spyware/mbam-setup.exe
INSTALL IT TO YOUR DESKTOP, update it,
then run a full scan and remove everything it finds.
some viruses will try to disable it
so if malwarebytes will not startup
then go into the folder it is in and rename the mbam file to XXX
then double click on the file you just renamed to start it up.
after you have used malwarebytes then do this online scan.
to make sure you have nothing else hiding away.

preferably in safe mode with networking.
