trojan removal

What is the name of the trojan? McAfee has a free scan that you can run from their site without installing any software.

To stop this happening again, you can get a FREE anti-virus program that allows you free updates for life! It has been rated better than McAfee or Symantecs Norton at spotting virus/trojans or worms. Go to
www.grisoft.com
and click on the AVG FREE VERSION link.

They may also have some info on how to remove your trojan-just type its name into the search box. Good Luck!

I have AVG on my PC. It has been installed for over a year and does update but does not find anything. I even downloaded the pro version and still nothing. I do not know the name of the trojan that I have because I uninstalled the scan that found it.

Glenda:
Not knowing what the Trojan was, you may want to try a DOS Virus Scan. I have use the DOS trial version of NOD32 whenever I am on location and suspect Klez or some other Viruscanning program defeater. Download trial DOS version at: http://www.nod32.com/download/trial.htm

The Stinger program that "Dream" is talking about is also a good tool, you can find it at http:/vil.nai.com/vil/stinger. It looks for 36 common viruses and trojans.
Good Luck

Trojan detection:

There are many trojan removal tools, AVG is an awesome AV system but not a way of detecting and removing trojans.

Spybot is OK yet will only catch common trojans, FREE. http://tinyurl.com/27dll

This page on HACK FIX offers links to several trojan detection/removal programs. The Software Test reults like will show you which programs are catching which trojans, you can the download them from the site.

I have found a very good free trojan removal program. The name of the product is called swatit and can be found using any online search engine. This product scans for trojans, bot and anything else related to trojans and bots.
