Delete Win32:Netsky
to delete the virus, goto control panel -> administrative tools -> Services
and find the service with executable path "%Windir%\services.exe -serv"

stop the service disable it, and remove the file from your hard disk.

the virus will create a registry update on the path
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"EastAV"="%windir%\EastAV.exe"
delete the key from registry, for that run regedit.exe ( click on start -> run and type regedit)
goto the path
