You'll see various references to the viruses you listed below at the
following website:
http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/alphalisting.asp?NAV=12&ltr=J

Trojans are common w/ websites. Doesn't look harmful to me.

1) Run Disk Cleanup.
2) Run your Spyware Removal Program (e.g. Lavasoft Ad-aware)
*Make sure you update Ad-aware before running
3) Run your Antivirus Program (e.g. Symantec Antivirus)
*Make sure you update your virus definition files before running

Good luck. Cheers!

Does anyone knows more about auditmypc.com?. I used their web functionality called "CHECK YOUR PRIVACY" and they 
installed some java classes. Scanning with Microsoft Windows Live Safety Center I noticed among results what this 
tool calls viruses:

* Java/Bytverify
* Trojan:Java/Classloader
* TrojanDownloader:Java/OpenConnection.F
