How to delete this virus?

Question

ok i was looking through my programs and i ran across a program called "sakora". i tried deleting it but it wouldn't let me. i tried deleting it from a different location and it said "access denied". i know it is a virus, but how do i delete it? i downloaded "trojan remover" and scanned my computer but that didn't delete sakora. i tried downloading AVG anti virus, and i scanned my computer, but it didn't delete sakora. so how can i delete this virus? also, please do not give me any programs which are unsafe or which cost money, i need something which is reliable and free. thank you

It doesn't look suspicious; and it is certainly not a virus. I very much doubt that you have been infected by an unknown threat(since AVG doesn't detect it), but if you are too worried just get a firewall software and block it's access with the internet. It cant hurt you if you do that.

I have heard Comodo Firewall is a good free one.
