I have recently changed my virus software from norton 2002 to avg 7, and upon doing a virus scan, i have dicovered that 6 files on my c drive are infected with a trojan horse.
Avg is coming up with Backdoor infected,embedded object, and tells you which file its in.
Avg wont let me quarentine the trojans, anyone know how i might get rid of them???
Cheers
Mark

boot up into safe mode which can be done by pressing either 'ESC' or 'F8' its defiantly one of those keys, that will load up with a bare amount of processes needed to run Windows so non of the trojans will be running.
Do a full system scan and it should allow you to remove them all.

Yip, as scott said, boot up in safe mode and find and delete them.
avg should give you a location of where the trojans are, so find that folder and job should be a good'n.
Fun and games start when the trojans found arent in the folders which the AV Software says theyre in..happened with me...complete pain in the arse.
