Answer by S.A.M. Gunner 7212
Trojans can be nast ! get AVG FREE at Grisoft.com and that will get rid of it for you. DO IT NOW ! You never know what those trojans are up to !
Answer by Einstein
A virus scan usually isn’t enough for a trojan. Trojans attach themselves to a lot of different files in your computer… files that cannot be deleted…. files that help other programs run. If you still have the name of the trojan, you need to do a search on how to get rid of the specific trojan you have and get rid of it thru your registry. That’s the only way to delete ALL components of it. Good luck!
Answer by michaelae52802
if when you scan it should tell you where to look and then you go to that area of your drive and delete it in most cases you’ll be able to do it that way.a very good free antivirus program is out called avg it stands for antivirus griesoft sooo just type avg in your search engine.

Very . Trojan’s are Password stealers so you need an anti virus program . here is a web site that will help you find free security programs nttp://www.freebyte.com/antivirus/
Answer by yosouf13
How did you find a trojan horse? Yes alot of Trojan viruses can be very harmful. Hackers can track the sites you go in your computer and even record your every keystroke you make on your computer. You have to be very careful.
An antispy/anti virus software like Mcafee,SBC yahoo protection, and others can remove them.
Answer by aznflippgurl
you should do a virus scan on your pc

Answer by Safe Mode
Trojans are replicators.They take advantage of system restore points to re produce,this is why your antivirus can’t get rid of it.Just turn off system restore temporarily to purge all restore points,scan and clean and after restart you can turn system restore back on.
Answer by PAUL V
If you formated th Drive and reinstalled your O/S then the virus must be coming from something else USB pen etc,
Answer by Brian F
Try combofix from nttp://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe followed up by MalwareBytes Anti-Malware from nttp://malwarebytes.org
Make sure your system is 100% up-to-date on it’s security patches from microsoft.
Stop downloading stuff with viruses. You can not expect ANY anti-virus to catch 100% of the viruses out there. Use common sense, ifyou download something from limewire, torrents etc. and it says you need a special player, it’s a virus. If it says you need to download a special codec, don’t be stupid, just delete the download.
Answer by Tom
It depends on the virus, can you post what the name of it is so we can try to assist.
Answer by No 666
I think it’s foolish to reformat a PC over a virus. You can not have two anti-virus program on the same PC.Disable one and uninstall it.You said you have a trojan but didn’t say what the symptoms were.If it’s slow or freezing up,then it’s because of the two anti-virus conflicting. Any way…..Go to CNET at nttp://www.downloads.com and get:
1 Avast Virus Removal Tool
2 McAfee Avert Stinger
3 Symantec W32.Downadup Removal Tool
4. CWShredder
these are small programs (4.5 mb for all 4).use them to scan your PC
Also if you have Windows,use the MMSRT.
go to start
then to run
type MRT in searchbar
click OK
choose longest scan and run the program
Answer by i♥u2

my friend had one of these once it made it so his files stoped working properly and eventuly crashed his whole computer it is very verey hard to get rid of and very very serios

NO GOOD. GO TO McAfee.com A.S.A.P. and run a free virusscan even suggest you purchase their newest version of McAffe Security Suite.
August 11th, 2011 at 2:26 am
The harm is already mentioned. Now I will tell you how I solved it. I used my AV program to quarantine it. They told me to disable automatic system restore and restart the computer in safe mode. There run virus scan againto get any last remanants you missed and delete all copies in quarantine and newly found.

I had one recently. Anti-virus does not do the job. Trojans are considered spyware/adware not viruses. They take over your internet settings and steal information passing them on to their creators.
Search the internet for “google pack” this is an internet tool set that is free. It comes with an Ad Aware program that will clean your computer and actually remove the spyware. Good luck.
Also, stop downloading from weird sites. It’s how you got it in the first place.
August 11th, 2011 at 3:40 am
download any antivirus like avg free, etrust, mcafee
August 11th, 2011 at 4:11 am
If you know the specific name of the trojan, you could go to Symantec and try find a removal tool for it:
http://www.symantec.com/enterprise/security_response/removaltools.jsp
A good online scan is Trendmicro’s Housecall:
http://www.trendmicro.com/hc_intro/default.asp
If that doesn’t work, I suggest you consider using Hijackthis, but use the online help offered:
I’m not sure what security programs you have , so here are link to some that I recommend:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
Ewido may be a good one to try and clean up any viruses. It’s only a 30 day trial, but it should get you cleaned up!
http://www.free-av.com/
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html
This last link is for Spybot Search and Destroy, which is a good tool and protection utility, especially in advanced mode!
This one is for a firewall
http://www.download.com/3000-2092-10039884.html
Good luck! In the future, remember to protect your pc and prevent infections in the future! Let’s hope that you won’t have to do this again!
August 11th, 2011 at 4:34 am
hi, perhaps you can try Norton to remove the virus and protect your PC. but you need to pay for the software
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

here are some things to know if you have a virus..
First, you may think you have a virus, but how do you really tell? Viruses often cause erratic behavior, smiley faces may pop up, your screen may disappear, or your computer may crash. The trigger that activates the virus can be almost anything. For instance, the virus can be activated the minute it is installed. Or it may start its dirty work the next time you start your computer. In many cases, a virus can reside inside your computer in an inactive state, waiting for a certain event (like a certain date) to happen.
From the moment the virus infiltrated your computer to the time that it made itself known to you, you could have innocently spread the virus to others. A very disconcerting sign that you have a virus is when friends call or e-mail to let you know you have sent them a virus-infested e-mail. It can also be transfered via IM’s and Peer to Peer’s like limewire, Bearshare and Kazaa… SO beware!!!
Now… If you notice any of this CRAPS (lol) in your system.. The first thing you gotta do is STAY CALM.. lol… because people tend to panic when they notice something like viruses… Thats what I did sometime in the best and I deleted some of my system32 thinking the virus is there… and KABOOM!!! I cant start my pc anymore…LOL!!!!
What you gota do is, download an antivirus… My personal reccomendation is AVG (http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/... Because unlike Norton and PCcillin or Mcaffee.. It’s not resource hungry.. It’s simple.. lol…
another recommendation is zonealarm.. but… It cost like 50$ for the fulll version… but you can email me for a serial (LOL!!).. anyways…
other programs are:
Anti Vir http://www.free-av.com
Panda anti virus http://www.pandasoftware.com
Avast! http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home...
My etrust antivirus.cai.com
clam win anti virus http://www.clamwin.com
and Last but not the least.. KAPERSKY… ( I dont actaully know if it’s free or something.. But because it’s not that popular, There’s less hacks for that program…)
But.. if you dont want any programs…. Try just to scan first…
housecall.antivirus.com
or jsut use free mcaffee virus scan…
but.. remember,, better be safe than sorry!!LOL!!
anyways…
They say only use one anti virus program… I say not… Because… base on my experience… There was this virus that got scanned by Avast but not by AVG.. Well thats just my opinion…
Now… sometimes… your anti virus says they have scanned something.. But cant delete it… what your gonna do is, google the virus name.. then there should be some step by step instructions in some forum… Try that… lol…
anyways… last but not the least but the most annoying and irritating and pissing (lol)
If you still cant delete it.. the last way is to reformat your PC… that sucks I know.. but… It’ll surely kill the viruses.. and your files.. LOL!!
And ya… before I forget…
Sometimes… viruses seem to restrict you from accessing the net.. sometimes… it kills your connection or something… now great.. you cant download softwares.. what you gotta do is go to a clean PC.. then download the latest installer from there… now… burn it to a cd or something… then load it to your pc… it shall work… lol
now good luck with you!!!!
