Are you trying to get banned?
You are getting angry over a post on the forums, just take a deep breathe and post in another thread.

Also op as stated before you could install malewarebytes  and run a full scan overnight. Also it is recommended you leave your webcam unplugged or turning off the wireless receiver when not in use.

As far as I remember you were the one trying to get banned lol.

I'd boot into safe mode, download Malwarebytes, then disconnect the internet after it updates.

My dad use to work for a guy who fixed computers. Anyway one day this guy's computer wouldn't start so when he opened it up he found a ton mice inside the machine.

Also op unplug your webcam when you aren't using it.
I use an iMac running Windows 7, I can't unplug the camera.
So should I just disconnect from the Internet and try what you guys suggested?

Are you loving handicapped or are you trying to be funny?

Hey, here's a little tip: don't directly reply to him when he posts stuff like that, he's either really that mentally defect or he's trying to get a reaction from people.

1. go to your temp files
2. Delete any exicuteables or Jar files
when you do two enable hidden files
if its jRat its easy to remove I'm not sure about DarkComet

Leave a bunch of life-destroying shock sites up on your computer. When the guy comes back to play in your files, hell get a shock.

Or, you know, MalwareBytes.

malwarebytes doesn't detect rats I'd recommend the OP running it after though, just to make sure nothing else was on it

Will AVG Internet Security work?

No. Once it's installed it's really hard to get rid of. Most RATs are polymorphic and "attatch" themselves onto explorer.exe, I've read Windows Defender Offline works in some cases.
