i did a system scan and i have a trojan horse. the name came up as follows:
trojan.downloader.druser and trojan.proxy.agent.fp

how do i get rid of these. none of my programs will completely remove it
and some programs wont open long enough to do anything before they r closed
automatically.

Did you run the programs in Safe or Normal Mode?

Since I don't know what you used or your methods, go through these
malware removal steps systematically:

Trojan downloaders usually come in two parts. 1st the installe
(downloader) then it just waits for you to click on an invested sit
and then loads the nasties

You don't say what AV or what anti Spyware you are using
"can't be much good ca
they"..?

Probably the best thing you can do is to look on your AV or Ant
spyware site and scan with an alternative AV and Spyware programme.
had this problem (and many others) with Norton whilst on Interne
Exploder.

Rather than use Internet Exploder and Outlook I'd sooner us
Thunderbird and Firefox...much faster downloading..! Give you an
example should I, I can be on Exploder (as I call it) for 10 mintue
and get over 120 cookies I can be on Firefox all day and get
dozen... same with Outlook, Messenger doesn't exactly help either.

I use Privacy Guardian and run it before I go Off-line, a bit lik
doing the washing up in the kitchen. If Billy Gates could turn hi
patches into quilts [i:8f23d3d2e1]"mi Granny would b
proud"[/i:8f23d3d2e1]

Run the programs (what are they, by the way?) and remove the malware.
