Win32.Botex runs as a Backdoor Trojan spyware program, which simply means that it is designed to enter a computer system through shady means (as in “through the back door”) to create problems… and sometimes control a computer from afar via unauthorized remote access.

Manual Removal:
The manual removal of Win32.Botex can be accomplished, but without the requisite knowledge and computer skills, it becomes a potentially more hazardous operation.  For instance, it is necessary to exterminate every one of the running processes associated with the spyware, followed by a painstaking search-and-destroy mission for all of the related files in the Windows registries of the computer.  So yes, manual removal is possible, but if it is not managed correctly, it can cause even more computer troubles.

Most computer users will be able to avoid these risks by selecting a dependable and guaranteed spyware removal system.  One fine option for this task is called ZookaWare PC Cleaner, the anti-spyware program created by the great computer minds at ZookaWare Company.
