    Just so you understand the 'nature' of backdoor.poison Backdoor:W32/PoisonIvy

    Warning! Backdoor Trojans

    These are the most dangerous, and most widespread, type of Trojan.
    Backdoor Trojans provide the author or ‘master’ of the Trojan with remote ‘administration’ of victim machines. Unlike legitimate remote administration utilities, they install, launch and run invisibly, without the consent or knowledge of the user. Once installed, backdoor Trojans can be instructed to send, receive, execute and delete files, harvest confidential data from the computer, log activity on the computer and more.

    If your computer was used for online banking or has credit card information on it, all passwords should be changed immediately to include those used for email, eBay and forums.
    You should consider them to be compromised.

    They should be changed by using a different computer and not the infected one, if not an attacker may get the new passwords and transaction information.


    Banking and credit card institutions should be notified of the possible security breech.

    Finally i solved the problem myself. I am listing these steps so that it could be a least help to others like me if possible.

    1) First i installed the Software named "Spy-bot search and destroy" and uninstalled other antispyware software like avast malwarebytes etc.
    2) Turned system protection off, because this trojan can restore itself from system restore points. Delete those recovery points
    3) Reboot the computer in Safe mode.( type "msconfig" in run program and look for the options)
    4) In safe mode start the "spy-bot search and destroy program. Scan everything that the program will provide in option
    5) scanning will take time and it will show some infected registry. Click fix found option.
    6) Type %temp% in Run program and delete those temporary files( Skip system files)
    7) Now type msconfig in run program and uncheck the safe mode option
    8) Reboot the computer in Normal mode and now you can turn on system recovery and install Antivirus and do a scan and be happy now.
    i hope i helped you. I tried these steps and i got my clean laptop again.
