virus warnings always true?

I have recently done a full format and new reinstall of Windows XP Home Edition and updated to SP3, it’s an original copy. All programs are either downloads from well known sites, or original. Before reformat Malwarwbytes (free) was showing I had two Trojans, I never wrote the names down as it removed them and the next day they were back. Turning off system restore made no difference.

I am now using AVG 9 and Malwarebytes with the new install. Lots of restore points made. Two Trojans are found by Malwarebytes names Trojan.autorun in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\nevershowext and Trojan.agent in C;\Windows\explore.exe. Removed yesterday, back today.

My question, are these real items or something found to encourage me to buy the full version of the program.
