I bet if you used Avast you'd have no trojans. It can scan your PC without Windows even being booted fully, before any viruses can start. And that's without boot CDs or floppies!

Yeah, I should download it - pure laziness on my part. The trojans dont seem to be doing anything....
I think the backdoor is a keylogger though, so I should probably try to get rid of that lol

yeah, we have norton as well, but we use trojan hunter, and ad-aware in conjuction, as well as regurlar uses of disk clean up, and clearing all temp internet files. (i find that trojans like to hide, and/or download themselves into the temp internet files, so clearing them whenever you go to a site that you arent sure about is a good idea)
