Malicious Software Not Removed (Zbot.gen)

Hi,
Today's Windows Updates included the June Malicious Software Removal Tool from MS. After its scan it said there was one item it detected but could not remove. The entry read thus:
PWS:Win32/Zbot.gen!AL
The only advice it gave was to run scans with my own software and have that remove it. But I just ran my Avira AV yesterday and it wasn't detected. And I just now finished MBAM which detected nothing either.
Should I just find my way to the file location in question (assuming I can find it) and remove the item manually ? Or is there another software which is sure to detect this and remove it automatically ?
(Oddly, the last two days my Avira has successfully blocked two other items trying to gain access to something in the AppData folder. I don't know if these things could be related.)
Any suggestions welcome !
Thanks !
