The deletion would fail due to the fact the Trojan disables anti-virus and
spyware removal tools.

The following information is provided by Win Tasks and I quote;
conscorr - conscorr.exe - Process Information
Process File: conscorr or conscorr.exe
Process Name: TrojanDownloader.Win32.Stubby.c
Description:
consol32.exe is registered as the TrojanDownloader.Win32.Stubby.c
downloader. This process usually comes bundled with a virus and it's main
role is to do nothing other than download other viruses to your computer. It
is a registered security risk and should be removed immediately.
The information is correct however, it's a commercial.

ad targeting application that helps advertisers deliver targeted ads.
"Targeted ads as in POP-UPS...
PreInMpp.exe
I wasn't able to find anything specific about this other than it is part of
the Three Musketeers that are infecting your computer. I did a Google search
and came up with a grip of forum articles but didn't have time to do a real
in depth search as I always do.
In any case, Russ did give some suggestions as to possibly removing these
little critters.
