Trojan Horse question

FloridaMan88 · 06-16-2005, 05:13 PM

Got my first Trojan Horse last night (3 actually)

The Norton Anti-Virus Program I have detected them initially but said it couldn't repair them without doing a Live Update of virus definitions.

So I did the Live Update, then turned off the System Restore feature (Norton Anti-Virus recommended doing this to keep the Trojan Horse programs from being restored).

Then I restarted the computer in SafeMode and ran a full system scan with Norton and it detected and quarantined the 3 Trojan Horses. Then I checked the system registery and didn't find any traces of them there. So I restarted back in Normal mode and deleted the Trojan Horses.

I basically followed the directions Norton was giving.

Any other recommendations about what I should do?

Thnaks.

your done.

keep virus defintions current, run norton all the time,
stay away from P0rn sites....download questionable things as attachements or email ,
you should remain trouble free
